I sure do understand the point about renders using 3D assets, but also have to try giving a understanding for the AI that is coming in really fast, not limiting my self there as for sure they are going to adapt all the rights else economy might stand still. Serious AI programs are learning algorithm's not like most think, it grabs Images on the world wide web rips them apart and puts them back together, this is simple mind thinking to be able giving a explanation on how it might be working. 

A good AI collects Information then it builds up a so called model, you can compare it with a mathematical function of your brain, but they call that file a Model witch is one of many learning algorithm's comparable to a .Json file Not a Image it self, the learning process with given Information generates a sort of Intelligent Filter, just like you use in Photoshop just that it is a learning filter. You can also compare it with a encyclopedia of Information.

So In theory human kind is creating a big brain, not local like most might imagine, there is no shut down trigger on one place it is working like a assimilations of all computers that are online collecting Information, the integration into your system has already been done, there is no turning back on this one, the AI models are often generated automatically on your system that will be to send and receive the appropriate Information's. Actually most digital devices are getting integrated.

The only thing that needs to be adapted is the rights but this for sure is going to be solved quickly as none of these features have been locked until now, so what remains is either one starts learning to live with it, learn how to use it, or shut down any Digital device.

But to make it understandable it is not a rip of from renders or pictures throughout the Web, they are individual models created with Information's that the Users are giving, it is how the AI is learning . 

Ok it is a little like the Terminator Movie, the beginning, where mankind is trying to play god and will loose control in one way or another scary it is but nothing we really can change about this. It is still up to the individual to decide weather to use it or not atm. Later it will be a full integration of your digital tool there is no way around it and none will ask anymore where the AI has gotten the info to make the models as this for sure can not be controlled by Humans.

So this is the simple explanation about the basic function, Immoral or not it is already a part of the whole, but basically this long text is just to explain that the generated Image is not a rip of an Image, but it is a model generated from Information's that the users have given. Same like a Homan that grows and learns with Information he is receiving to accomplish a task.  That is why it is called AI, non Humanoid learning being.  

That is certainly one possible outcome but, I suspect not the only one possible.  I for one would not have predicted the modern craze for a return to the use of vinyl for the reproduction of music but often as the technology moves forward there is a drive for a more simple life.

Many predictions of the future are based from a very biased position such as the common belief that some have that everyone lives their life on social media and the life revolves around the mobile phone.  Other than this and one other art forum I am not involved in social media.  I am of an age where I do have a smart phone that I switch on to make a call and then switch off again and because of that many of the predictions of the future are not what I see life becoming for me.   AI is just the latest craze that will create problems for the legal profession and will take years to resolve, if at all, in much the same way the profession is struggling with the impact of social media.

Happily I am of an age where little of this will touch me and I will be able to continue living while taking full account of my own personal moral compass.  My only concern is those that  love that will have to live with the world as it is but i did my bit by not having children. 

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
