Brands are turning to hyper-realistic, AI-generated influencers for promotions.

Even doctors are liable to be replaced by AI. I don’t know what counts as “something of value to society” to you, and frankly that’s the sort of argument that is never worth having. But generally speaking, it doesn’t get much more valuable for society than doctors.

Being a doctor would be a real job, but the only jobs I’ve seen actually getting replaced are things like clickbait content farms, scams, marketing, exploitive gambling-centric video games, and other such garbage. Unlike being a doctor it’s never been hard to shit that stuff out into the world. And since these neural networks aren’t actually that good, I’ll believe they can replace doctors when I see it.

You haven’t heard of good writing and good artwork being replaced by AI?

I’ve seen some pretty interesting images and some funny text but nothing that amounts to a big enough vision that it’s something cohesive like a complete movie or a book. I’ve seen Joel Haver videos but those aren’t made by pushing a button and getting a video.

I’ll believe they can replace doctors when I see it.

And when that day comes we’re not going back.
