So not simple

If AI can create art, write stories, and mimic emotions, what makes your creativity special?

I really dislike AI. For the most part.

The AI posters/flyers look like shit and it’s so obviously AI, I don’t understand how people are okay with using and displaying them. They’re so fugly.

I can’t wrap my head around it. A coworker and friend, just this morning, sent me the poster he will use for running to win a school board trustee position. The poster screams AI.

I sarcastically asked, is that you? (There’s a full length picture of him leaning on the letter O or something.) He said well yes of course that’s me. I said isn’t it an AI generated photo of you?

Big difference.

I get that AI has a place and can do many very intelligent things. I’m actually going to use the Nolej program to enhance the way I teach in the classroom. I give it the info and it generates fun quizzes, word search games, etc which will hopefully making learning more fun.

I guess I’m going to have to accept AI and not reject it. Radically accept it up the ying-yang.

But obviously it can’t replace human hearts or hugs or real feelings. Real relationships. The love for a child. Orgasms.

Have a real penchant for polka dots lately

  1. I resist ai to the hilt, and will keep doing it till the cows come home. It only gives people more excuse not to think. Screw ai.

  3. I am definitely not a fan of those hyperrealistic posters. there is something inherently creepy about them – an uncanny valley feeling. Mike

  4. AI will continue to get better, or so they say, CJ. I have a sister who is all about polka dots.

      I now have two black-on-white polka dot dresses! Wondering if it’s okay to wear them back to back lol

  5. Looks like a calm first day back at work so that’s good. I don’t like AI art (or writing) either but it’s lives now and going forward. I think it has a lot of good uses but with that I feel sorry and a little scared for the industries that could disappear and the people who hold those jobs.

    1. Hopefully it uses its powers for good and not evil 😬

  7. it has great value but the issue will be using for everything and not what it should be used for, a tool to help and learn from. It should never be passed off as a original.

  8. I feel exactly this way! There are things it’s useful for, but my mind loves to see real photos now, and art, even if not beautiful. I just crave it!

    1. I’m proud of myself for getting a tiny bit better at picking out AI photos now, i was very gullible before and would fall for anything 😬🤭

      1. I get caught by a video once in a while, but like you have become more careful. When the news from the Nepal flooding came out, I was sure it had to be AI and sad that it wasn’t. 😦

      2. Right? Just when you hope it actually is, something so terrifying and catastrophic 😢

  9. I think AI has a place and for me it’s for research. It saves me time when I’m planning our trips and want to delve a bit deeper into a place but the original idea still comes from my own travel reading šŸ“–
