Yep. It's worth checking out GPT-6 to see what state of the art actually looks like. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/sJl1KoSL_o8
If you ditch generative AI you go back to needing to pay an artist/designer for their work, and they likely charge more than ChatGPT because they might have rent/bills and that sort of thing to cover.
I don't think the people pushing that narrative genuinely believe what they're saying. They're just influencing public opinion.

Well no I, wasn't doing that either. Because it would be kind of silly to take someone else's code and say "I made this" just because I ran some build script, wouldn't it?
You could do this before AI, though. Just download a big repo off github and build the binaries yourself. Or is that not enough obfuscation to convince yourself you made it?

You could train an LLM on a dataset that intentionally excludes certain data, and see if it is able to extrapolate outside of its dataset and come up with those excluded items independently. For example, remove all code…
Yes, things are really great everywhere else.
You're speaking directly to his marketing trap.
I don't post there anymore but I do still check my DMs once a week, because every now and then someone will find my work through there, and I need people to find my work in order to survive. I unfortunately can't easily…

Why are the leading models capable of regurgitating full copyrighted works such as "Harry Potter" and "On the Road"? Did they hire someone to type those out for them? https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.02671
I wanted to know my real score so I intentionally picked the answer most likely to be wrong in those instances.
Not always. I once got accused of cheating at University because my take-home assignment was so much better than my in class work. At home there was no pressure to perform. I could practice and try things.
It was a "Keurig", and I had to put a pod in it and wait a few seconds. Is that not espresso? I make espresso at home by grinding/tamping it myself so I admittedly don't know much about the pod version or whether that…
I did go to an American coffee house while I was there. It was called something like "Phil's" and there were no lattes to be had.

On the other hand, one of my recent launch posts received comments such as "this is the sort of thing that is now possible with AI!", when I didn't use any AI at all.
This still means that 40% of consumers aren't turned off at all. That seems promising for AI bulls.
