hello I will not be creating art if it does not generate a profit for me personally, the artists I work along side of, are only useful to me so long as I am making a profit. I cannot wait to replace the people who work for and with me with computers.
seriously you’re there fucking employer, you’re just saying you can’t wait to fire them.
you know how you constantly see little reminders of how bad cryptocurrancies are for the environment, blahblahblah, yeah? imagine how much energy goes into generating each chatgpt response, or each 30-60 second AI video, I think I’ve only seen that mentioned in one article and it was on some independent outlet.
someone create an AI that washes dishes so I dont have to work anymore.

Improvements to energy consumption are being implemented each generation. Online image generation is estimated at 2.9Wh per instance.
However, for example, Stable Diffusion XL Turbo is closer to 0.1Wh per instance. The push to market always beats the push for optimization.
Ah yes, Sora, put out by Google, who definitely hasn’t been known to have already done a bunch of very misrepresentative footage on their past AI demos…Something tells me when push comes to shove it’ll become obvious that though Sora will be cool and revolutionary, it also won’t be nearly as big of a deal as they made it look in the demo and folks will notice efforts were made to selectively cherry pick shots that heavily favor the tool, and as soon as you go outside its wheelhouse it starts to struggle.Edit: nevermimd I was very much mistaken!
Unfortunately you’re mistaken, Sora is not Google it’s OpenAI and CEO Sam Altman was taking live requests on xitter and posting back the outputs and they were just as impressive as the “cherry picked” video, that’s not to say they weren’t without issue, but the technology just improves. It’s currently worse than at any point in the future, but it will get better
Oh geez, my bad, I thought it was Google.
I trust OpenAIs demos more for largely the reason you mentioned, they have tended to be more transparent about the downsides of their products before.
Fair enough!
worth keeping in mind that it would be just as easy to have employees set up a twitter account to submit ‘oh yeah sick make this’ and post a cherry picked video that way, but i’ve not seen anything.
I wont be checking twitter lol
I wouldn’t say the live requests were as good as the live demo https://x.com/sama/status/1758206987094147252?s=20
Its definitely impressive, but I still haven’t had a success story with generating pictures using dalle/gemini/adobe. It’s possible I’m not good at making prompts, but it’s definitely not exactly ready even for stock photos.
