Artificial Stupidity

Mariasole's posting here makes my heart wrench:

never trust the machines, always keep yourself in control because the end is always to get crushed by the gears...or worse...to be part of them!

This is what I meant, viewtopic.php?f=7&t=475 that programming in OpenXTalk (xTalk, or any language for that matter) would soon become a moot point if the AI is writing it for you.

Then there's no achievement. Like buying a game, skipping to the last boss with a cheat code & being invulnerable. Where's the challenge? - What was the point, and everyone else knows you cheated, so the response might be *meh* and they move on.
The creative side of producing something unique, or even programming in your own style, would be gone.
This is of course the issue that lots of digital artists have been grappling with. When a client can simply describe what they want created, and pay no royalties, where's the need for anyone to be adept with Photoshop?

One benefit of working with a human artist is the resulting work has copyright protection.

I haven't been following other jurisdictions, but in the US we have a rare instance of poetic justice where the public who created the training data winds up being the winner: works are public domain when generated through a prompt.

While A.I. may be useful in certain areas it may end up being a bane in some others.
