Cant wait when I can feed it a book and give guidelines what it should look like visully.
Except that it will be censored to shit. Anything towards the risque, conflict, controversial, copyright etc will require a frustratingly amount of effort to circumvent.
For example it took me ages to generate this image of Lara Croft, because DALL-E didn't want to infringe potential copyright, and preferred to do its own thing instead of listening to my directions. I had to trick it into generating this picture (for the Crystal Dynamics next Lara Croft thread):
As another poster stated, it will only be truly be useful once these limits are removed (fuck off 'red team'), and/or run locally without restrictions and under our full control.
One day I'm hoping we will have the tools so that I can fix Peter Jackson's LotR trilogy. The first thing I'd fix are the goddamn army of the dead scenes.
Maybe this is why the Enterprise didn't have video surveillance
?
We need more advanced sensors and scanners or nothing will be admissible in court.
I'm assuming that the meta-optics / metamaterial sensors of the future will provide so much fidelity and metadata that perhaps it will be pretty straightforward to distinguish between real images and AI generated images.
Metamaterials, with their ability to manipulate electromagnetic waves, could lead to sensors that capture far more information than current imaging technologies. This could include not just visible light but other spectra, polarisation information, and even the detection of subtle environmental cues that are invisible to traditional cameras. There's a great video that covers one such metamaterial:
Though it's also likely that AI generated imagery will in time also be able to spoof the relevant data as well. I wouldn't be surprised to see AI agents being used to help determine the authenticity of a given media, like a virus scanner.
