Comment on Artists are losing work, wages, and hope as bosses and clients embrace AI
MagicShel@lemmy.zip 2 weeks agoYeah the problem is pretty much everything AI does requires collaboration with an actual human expert. But we’ve got people who think it can be a therapist without an actual therapist, artist without collaborating with an artist, coder, author, marketing strategist, lawyer, doctor…
This isn’t me belittling AI, I think it can do some really incredible things, but the way I see it, everything it does requires actual cognitive ability and domain knowledge.

I’ve used ChatGPT for work, just asking it to paraphrase original sources so I’m blinded from the original wording ahead of doing my rewrite. One paragraph at a time, it works great (I check against the source); feed it a full story at once, and holy shit, do you not have anything reliable. At that point, you’re spending more time checking and verifying than you saved by using it in the first place.

This is the thing that really kills me, like, what an LLM can do is not a revolutionary leap, it’s an evolutionary step beyond basic grammar, tone, and spell checking. It’s more capable than traditional auto complete, but it’s not a fundamentally different capability.
