So yeah, when you think about it, it does look like we’re losing our touch with creativity. A lot of things that people used to be creative with are now being done by machines and AI to run. And the funny thing is that we all know that these AI won’t ever be as precise or good as AI, but that still doesn’t stop people from utilizing them.
If you give AI a mathematical equation, it might fail it, depending on how complex it is. When you try to get it to correct itself or make it easier to understand, you could end up getting a different answer. In the same way, you could tell AI to provide the drawing of the Monalisa, and it will get you rubbish. The more you try to get it to correct, the worse the image will get. And AI will make mistakes that even amateur artists will never make. Like, why would you put an arm in the abdomen? Also, has AI written a story for you before? Omo, you’d want to cry from the trauma. PTSD will follow you for a long time afterward. Lol.
But then, with our heavy reliance on these things, we no longer see the need to be creative. Hell, even without AI, companies also prefer to be in control of what exactly their employees put out. The other day, Matt Damon said in an interview that Netflix had a strict standard for its movies to follow. In the same way, write-ups will also follow a particular pattern, this is because most of the time, those in charge want to create something similar but in dozens and possibly hundreds of places.
In my opinion, AI and machines are not the problem; how we rely on them is what matters. If you let them handle things that require creativity, then you’re only setting yourself up for heartbreak. These things are designed to make our lives easier, not totally take over our minds and our thinking. Because I my opinion, if you have to resort to AI to do something that is easily just for your creativity, then you’re nothing but a fraud.
You’re not a writer if you can’t write without AI. In the same vein, you’re not an artist just because you know how to craft the perfect prompt to get the most accurate result. As long as you’re not the one doing the creative work, then you’re just a button-pusher. You can outsource everything else, the physical and laborious work, that’s okay. But provided you’re not the one doing the thinking, then that work is not yours.
It belongs to artificial intelligence. And it should be the rights of everyone that the AI was trained on. Well, it is what it is.
