Why aren't tech folks as bothered by AI as creatives are?

Just noticed a pattern – tech enthusiasts seem chill with AI, while creatives might feel a bit uneasy. 🤔 Any ideas why?

Totally get you. ChatGPT's cool for bits of code, but can't craft a whole software piece. In the creative game, clients usually have the vision, and artists make the calls. Midjourney vibes with that – artists chip in, but clients might not dig that part. Unlike messy code, art's flaws aren't as obvious.

Personally, I'm a creative soul, and AI doesn't rattle me. I get it's a hot topic in the art world. My take? If AI makes you uneasy, maybe there's some art insecurity there. I don't feel threatened 'cause AI boosted my art game, and TBH, I wasn't rolling in art cash anyway. The "starving artist" life predates AI.

About losing gigs to AI – most outsourced jobs are soul-suckers. I'd scrub toilets and keep my creativity over selling out. AI's an art form too. How can I, as an artist, hate on that?

Most of the fears about new technology, including AI technology, are unfounded. Most people are afraid of AI because of what they have seen in science fiction mobies and read in science fiction books. Tech people know what is technology and what is its limitations, therefore, they are not afraid.

Tech people are just being sly in my opinion. They know what these AI techs are capable of doing when they reach their full potential. They are only relaxed now because they know that they haven't a scratched the surface of what AI is capable of doing.

As much as tech enthusiasts do not seem too bothered about AI at the moment, in time I do believe they will. AI is still very much in its early days and over time, we will see it progress and become a lot more clever.

Once they reach a time where AI can do something that tech enthusiasts can in which it can not do now, that is when I feel they will start panicking.

Tech enthusiasts may not be worried about AI in its current state but in time, as AI progresses, I firmly believe that is when tech enthusiasts will start to panic and worry. The pace AI is developing is a lot quicker than I thought it would be.

Those who are tech enthusiasts are not too bothered about AI at the moment because AI has not given them any reason to be worried as of yet.

They are underestimating AI though and how quickly it can catch up to those who have skills they feel they are safe with. Tech enthusiasts may get a shock at some point when AI finally catches up.

True! I see the future and impact of AI in our the same way you do because it might appear that AI is very harmless now but will it stay the same way when the full power and capacity of AI have been explored? I don't think so, and that's why it's going cause a mass hysteria.

When you're available familiar with something, there no way you're going to bothered about the pros and cons of such things. It's the same thing with tech folks and ordinary folks who doesn't know much. The ordinary creative folks are more curious to find out more about AI because it's alien to them.

I agree, some are already panicking but I feel they are panicking when they do not need to. As humans, we can stay ahead of the development of AI and it is going to take time before we will see them become better than us in terms of skill.

It may be that we will always stay ahead, who knows?

To worry is too easy especially when there are some vocal people who are the one's behind the agenda being pushed. This is why so many other people will be influenced by what they say and be worried too as well as carry the same thing about influencing those in their circle.

Just maybe, the techies understand from a vantage position that AIs are not real threat to humans. A tech guy who is neck deep in app development told me that AIs can't ever supersede human control.

Maybe, they have that awareness and are not bothered about their jobs being taken by AIs because they know humans would still control AIs to an extent.

The tech guy who told you that is either ignorant or doesn't want to truthful to you. AI programs can be a threat to human beings existence depending on what and how it's been programmed. A lot high tech movies have already provided more details of what AI programs can do when they're super enhanced.

That's an intriguing observation. Tech enthusiasts might be more exposed to the positive aspects and advancements of AI, whereas creatives might worry about AI encroaching on their creative process and diminishing the uniqueness of human creativity.

That's a thought-provoking point. It seems like AI's impact is viewed through different lenses depending on one's background and profession. Artists seem to be intimidated by it because they fear it'll replace them, while tech enthusiasts see it as something to be used to enhance their overall efficiency.

Well stated, and I can understand why a lot of artists are viewing AI as a replacement. AI can outdo the productivity of any artists many times over and even though AI can't currently match a human's creativity, it does have lots of data that it can manipulate and creation original works which are unique enough to compete. Also, it's important to remember that AI is in its infancy right now so the prospect of competing with something like that would be daunting.

The problem right now is that human beings are becoming so lazy with all the tech that have been made available for them. I was in a forum the other day and someone was only making responses using ChatGPT. He couldn't type anything on his own which is a big flaw.

It's an issue that has been noted in various other scenarios since ChatGPT came about. I've seen the same on YouTube. As a matter of fact, I've become far more adept at spotting this kind of responses because they usually sound very monotonous and robotic.

Yeah, that's a fact. Whenever you read any content that's been generated by an AI program, it's very easy for you to know it's not written by a human because it won't sound like what someone had written. It's on this note, the AI program development teams are working so hard on improving AI capabilities.
