One imaginery example: I train a model of Kakadu sound, I try it on drum loop and it perfectly separates all timbre of snare sounds,
now would AI ever think about it to use it like that..
It´s still under human control and GPT is word for robbery

 

An AI doesn't think and doesn't have ideas. That's why it's also called artificial stupidity.
If the programmer programs your example, they'll get exactly what they put in.

 

If we want our music to last centuries or millenia we will have to write it in stone or in metal.

 

That translates to a new hard drive every 5 years, which makes 200 hard drives in 1000 years.
A backup of a backup of a backup, 200 times over!

 

I think AI and its great takeover of the workplace is a bit like the windmill in Animal Farm.
the fruits of its potential will not actually be enjoyed by most. Shorter Workweeks, easier tasks conducted with minimal effort on our part, i think its jst a carrot they are waving for us knowing we will take the bait

 

Gullibility is often frowned upon as a negative trait. It is actually very closely tied to the word trust.
Anyone can hear or read about who and what not to trust.
Trusting something or someone should not be a thing that people guard but it has become that. I have met people who do not trust anyone. Some of them say they are better off. If a person does not trust anyone or anything, the person it hurts the most eventually is themselves. It can sabotage relationships and self-sabotage almost anything. I think it is good to be cautious and gullibility is the extreme of that trust, being blind trust without caution. Quite sad that we live in a world where bad people will exploit something almost innocent in others. I am not convinced it is stupidity as much as it is hope or simple belief. I would agree some may well be stupid, but not all.

 

This is where faith, belief, hope and the good traits we possess have to come in. We have to believe that there are more good people on this earth than bad, and that they won't let art and music and the great things humans have done disappear. That sounds almost like any human would be stupid to do that. If we do not keep the traits humans have of faith, hope and traits that were passed to us as children, the next generations are the ones that will lose the most. I personally have to believe that humans are not that stupid.

 

@Somnambulist Unknown stupidity can blossom when intelligence and insight miss their call.

 

Not of course just music.

 

Well, as long as my estrogen gets made by real trans chemists, I don't care about AI one bit.

 

That's true, but also not easily fixed. People who "question everything", everyone's motives and the truthfulness of information irrespective of source generally score low(er) on intelligence tests. It is precisely those people who end up in echo chambers/"it's just common sense" irrationalities/conspiracy theory circles that lead to isolation, burning of bridges, and the missing out on opportunities.

 

I "quest everything", that I haven´t seen or experienced
Edit:
Anyone remember old encyclopedias and how they changed thru new print..

That's a fake genAI video you know?

"Seedance’s ‘generated’ AI Cruise-Pitt demo was a green screen and face swap"

 

Brother it's the weekend and I have allowed my emotions more say than my cognitivalities.

 

A journalist recently bought many used, old reference books to be prepared for the ever-increasing falsification of history.
She recommended that her readers do the same.
