Very cool video. AI in Art is so fascinating. I recently made a video on it totally convinced that AI could become better artists. However I wondered if we would value AI Art as much as human art. Especially knowing the personal turmoils of the artist that is the soul of the art. 🤔 Maybe not.

Generative algorithms, process what the AI algorithms are constant learning. Now, do we allow decision algorithms? Yes, but only to an level of the creators consciousness. AI must not develop into an creator, that bypasses into self sufficiency.

As immersive and beautiful looking as it is, it still feels like a glorified light show. I’m sure there is still more it can do.
To be able to show the beauty of memory is amazing, but the ability to interact in a positive and practical way will always be more than aesthetics.

I work in “AI”. The technology used in this presentation is just polished technology that exists since few to many years.
Nothing revolutionary nor really intelligent. Those models can’t even play tic tac toe. There’s no intent, no planning (unless you specifically trained it to do so).
As many others, this guy humanise programs by saying think, hallucinate, dream. Where it is really not that at all.
But yeah it looks beautiful.

August 21, 2020 at 2:07 am
I completely agree, he couldve looked at the new research where AI allows you to replace parts of an image seamlessly with other textures, and a lot of others that are valid AI uses for graphical design (that i cant remember off the top of my head) but he chose to make over glorified wallpapers lol.
Damn Dumb
August 21, 2020 at 5:59 am
@srtghfnbfg image inpaiting is the same idea, this is not an AGI.
srtghfnbfg
August 21, 2020 at 6:15 am
@Damn Dumb but image inpainting is also relatively new, and i just meant that he didn’t even talk or use that although it fits both “Art” and “AI”. But i never said anything about AGI (and i think the video didn’t either, otherwise that artist would be way in over his head) and this clearly isnt generalizable to anything unless you want to make unique wallpapers lol 😂

AI is not good for advanced physics fluids models (lacks an unknown constant plus a variable rate we haven’t solved or discovered yet) so it cannot make anything we consider or should invest into as art. Its analysis of human social issues however is valid
