Which is precisely why people need to be educated as to why this needs to be stopped. Right now, we're being mollified with fun and seemingly harmless image generation and chatbot systems that are simple and rewarding for the end-user to engage with. This is by intent. It is to get us hyped and excited for a particular use-case scenario without leaving us much room to think critically of the greater implications.

People need to understand - this is not a good thing, and laws need to bring these rogue companies to heel and quickly. Simple content-protection laws could nip this nonsense in the bud, and effectively illegalize nearly every single mass plagiarism model out there, since all of them are built on content that did not belong to the companies developing their models.

"Generative" AI is not going to be used to give you amazing, infinite worlds, or deep and interesting characters. This isn't going to bring back the warm-fuzzies of discovery before the big publishers started churning out same-same arena shooters ad-infinium. It's going to be used to push independent voices even farther from an already creatively-barren space, and turn everything into design-by-committee nothingness.

Agree but we cannot stop it, that is outside of the possibilities because of the great return it has. But educating people on it, regulating it, make it compatible with people life that, is something that must be done and that involve us as workers and customers.
Regulamentation is the only way forward and I already see that it will happen the same as for firearms. Severely limited in EU and mostly everywhere in US. But regulamentation is not denial. And AI do not necessarily means stealing. But also simplify and give out the possibility to concentrate on more complex topics.

It can be stopped dead and cold with the appropriate laws - and of course people standing up against a sycophantic puppet government. Illegalize and boycott, and it's over.

The issue is always that others will use it.
Ban it in USA, China will use it, China win etc...
Also, you can ban it in surface but do you think the 1% will drop the stuff that allows them to get even more power over individuals ?
I see AI as probably the last nail on the coffin of our civilization but like Terminator, it's unavoidable because there is no way Planet Earth will ban it.

One of the more exciting things AI will give us in the future is huge cRPG's with thousands of NPC characters full voice acting with unique voices for each one instead of the same 4 voice actors covering 10% of the total lines, leaving you reading thousands of lines of dialogue like your trapped in the fucking Bastille.

Classics like Pillars of Eternity 1 or Baldurs Gate 2 for example being fully AI voice acted via modding = amazing stuff.

I don't see them "winning" anything with a losing gamble, but I guess I've said my piece here on this topic anyway. I'm the last person in the world who can be convinced unregulated development of fake "Ayy Yaiii" is in any way a positive, so I don't wish to waste your time.

"It's so good to see you [token: playerName]. I was just thinking about [token:NPCScheduledActivity], but then [token:NPCEventTrackRecent]. I've never been so [token:NPCEventTrackResponseState] in my life! I'm so jealous of the many adventures you must get yourself into. You know, everyone in [token:RuralTownNameGeneric] keeps talking about that time you [token: playerRecentQuestComplete]. [DialogClosingLine] It reminds me of my childhood."

Yeah, sounds great.
