Yeah but I could not draw or do anything with them.
Now they are working by themselves to produce an output I would have had to commission to obtain

#34Not sure if that counts as a second order effect, but porn actors/actresses will soon be almost obsolete. Basically, they only need to work on the hands and sexual organs a bit more and get movies more stable, but this work is progressing rapidly. As far as I can see, porn will be almost completely AI-generated within the next few years. There will be insane amounts of lawsuits, since the content generated by AI is o…
Yeah the holographic personal entertainment device in THX 1138 doesn't seem that far fetched nowadays https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rn-Sa0MlFkg

#35Hollywood will have to reinvent itself or will become marginal. Actors will be licensing their 3d models and do voice-overs in the beginning (after that even voice will be transferable), but gradually it will be more influencers/celebrities.
Imagine if "AI" would generate beautiful movie/tv show from reading given book series, with maybe minimal edits required to keep pace as expected, probably several versions with various trims for die hard fans as much as casual viewers.
No fan complaints about twisting original book into mess. Imagine things like Wheel of time, Malazan book of the fallen or Hyperion cantos done exactly as you read them, no 'creative' invented crap that somebody felt urge should be added just to increase views.
This all will be for old schoolers like us. What young will be doing on next generation of tiktok is anybody's guess.
Another example would be properly self-adjusting and generating games tailored to individuals, virtual world reacting to actions, be it singleplayer or mmo.

#36Hopefully breaking the link between people's labour and their worth as a human. I hope that as more and more things become automated and fewer people need to work, that we restructure society so they don't have to do bullshit jobs or work if they don't want to. Unfortunately, people have been hoping for this for as long as there has been machinery which multiplied humans' labour and it's yet to materialise, but I rem…
>Hopefully breaking the link between people's labour and their worth as a human
Look at how people who are Nth generation welfare recipients and Nth generation trust fund babies turn out (as people, not in terms of wealth). People just find other ways to dick measure. You could fill a library with all the dumb stuff victorian royalty did to keep score amongst each other.
And you can see impressions of this kind of human behavior among all sorts of groups who work minimally and are mostly provided for by others.
(Inb4 some jerk looking for a few quick virtue points straw-mans me) I'm not saying work is the meaning or life or anything like that but people not having to work for their basic needs (which is always a relative target) isn't some harmonious utopia.

#37AI will become the first publisher of contents on any platform that exists. Will it be texts, images, videos or any other interactions. No banning mechanisms will really help because any user will be able to copy-paste generated content. On top of that, the content will be generated specifically for you based on "what you like". I expect a backlash effect where people will feel like becoming cattle which is fed AI-ge…
> As a consequence, I expect people to come back to localilty, be it associations, sports clubs or neighborhood related, because that will be the only place where they will be able to experience humanity.
I see the opposite. My expectation will be that computation will be cheap enough for the average people to create their own "local" AIs that, once tailored to their master's expectations and tastes, emulate human interactions and engage with other community "members" (in reality other AIs) in the same way that you and I are interacting. These AIs will act as avatars and give answers that optimize for personality and desired response. They do so independently and with little external input. We'll just have AIs talking to other AIs on our behalf just like that Twitch experiment where two Google Home devices endlessly talk to each other.
The few cases where humans interact will, like dialing 911, only be done on an emergency basis, .

How confident are you about that? I can see AI taking over a small subset, creating new categories etc, but I doubt the sheer breadth of porn available on the internet is going to get replaced.
I would expect to hear that fake video avatars have completely taken over OnlyFans before AI is generating picture and audio perfect lengthy porn scenes that covers the vast array of categories porn sites offer. Maybe this is happening though and I'm just unaware.

#40The need for strong human authentication will be more obvious. Biometrics as currently done with cameras etc will be easily hackable by AIs adapting signals to sensors. I don't see how this can be done in an absolute way, uniquely for a person from cradle to the grave without government-style infrastructure.
