Hahaha look how you get downvoted for stating the obvious. Amazing community here.

Yeah, no.
First AI right now can create very decent images in seconds for basically free, and it only will get better.
Second, AI can do much more than that: translation, Explaining a text in simpler words, help write code, semantic search… Creating poems about armadillos and talking like a pirate are fun novelties, but not the goals.

Well, it’s a classic. Now look at this:

It’s so impossible in fact that the CIA spends millions destabilizing countries that are even threatening to become socialist.
Tja@programming.dev 2 months ago
It’s one of the reasons that make it impossible in practice.
The USSR spent millions the other way tho.

There are so many factual errors in their comment tho.

Good things you stated some? Why not have an actual discussion instead of a pissing contest?

That stuff is not free, for example. The energy and water usage is simply not economical.

What happaned to translation in the last 15 years will now happen to creative design.

So, nothing? Because you still need professional translators for creative works, plenty of writing simply doesn’t directly translate as it relies on culture-specific context that readers in other languages and countries don’t have. So you need someone who is well versed in both cultures to find an appropriate alternative for the translated work.

90% of translation needs are from tourists in foreign nations. They are fulfilled via AI.
AI art is the same. Instead of learning how to sing/play/draw over a period of years, just use AI to get to a good enough solution for far cheaper/free.

If you have zero standards in your art and don’t want a connection with other people through art: sure.
But people get bored by Marvel Movies quite quickly.

“90% of translation needs…”
confidently making an assertion that sounds plausible for a few seconds but turns out to be unsubstantiated bullshit. are you trying to steal an LLM’s job? 🙃
