What a time to be alive
There's an argument to be made here that this is an ethical and good use of AI.Which is someone ironic, as a lot of Internet porn is now also AI generated (so a friend told me).
Imagine the disappointment and feeling you've been slightly cheated after you've just shot your load and then you realise that the woman you've just been tossing yourself off to isn't even real.
It's one thing being scammed out of thousands of pounds by an online scammer, but being scammed out of a wank is taking things too far.
An even more interesting argument, albeit a far more controversial and sensitive one would be if that also applies to child pornography.There's an argument to be made here that this is an ethical and good use of AI.
I.E creating salacious material that has little chance of being the product of coercion or crime. You hear stories of women forced to work in these camsite farms (for lack of a better term) for no money at all. Videos and photos produced by an AI "artist" does away with all that.
Then the flipside, because there's always a flipside, is the negative effect that could have on women who have chosen sex work. A human can only churn out so much material whereas some AI can flood the market.
Incidentally - what a time to be alive when we can be discussing the relative merits and pitfalls of AI generated nudity vs. flesh and blood on a dreary Monday morning.
I would imagine that'd be outlawed. Rightly so.An even more interesting argument, albeit a far more controversial and sensitive one would be if that also applies to child pornography.
Would it decrease the sexual abuse and exploitation of real children or merely encourage it?
It absolutely will. There will be new builds where they way that things like doors and pipeworks are designed by AI so that they can swiftly be installed by robotics. This will usher in an era of lower cost housing. That still leaves plenty of retrofit work, which I think is going to be more a constraint for robotics rather than AI.It’s only really the office bods that should be worried it’s hardly going to start plumbing and hanging doors.
Could do that in Excel?Just wait until HR departments ask the AI who to sack to optimise the amount of money made / productivity on an employee by employee basis vs salary/redundancy costs. They could do this on a monthly basis with each payday.
Total joy.
Seems the Chinese open-source AI 'Deepseek' is about to / is causing global markets to go into MELTDOWN. Apparently more efficient and cheaper than the current models and just as effective...

The problem here is that chatGPT for example frequently gives incorrect answers to questions.I'm anti-AI, although primarily due to the lack of understanding that the World has. The younger generation seem to be less challenging of information and more accepting of what they see on social media as true. AI, used in the right context, would be a positive thing, unfortunately it'll be used in nefarious ways.
Yes, if you wanted to prety much guess the outcome - which I suppose would be good enough if you didn't really care too much about accuracy.Could do that in Excel?
So long as AI also assesses it's own cost to the organization,and decides whether it should also go.Just wait until HR departments ask the AI who to sack to optimise the amount of money made / productivity on an employee by employee basis vs salary/redundancy costs. They could press the who to fire button on a monthly basis with each payday.
Total joy.
