People Want People
Even a book is the same. The moment it is known to be written by AI, nobody will read it. The internet was created for people to connect to people. Technology is a way to buy things, give services, communicate, and share, and it is all about people. Human beings crave human connection.
Songs And Pain
A song works the same way: the moment it is known to be AI, it is gone. Listeners want to feel the artist's pain. When Kanye insulted Taylor Swift and she wrote a song in response, it became a personal comeback, and that lifted her to the next level.
AI As A Tool
AI can still be a tool. Give it a photo of an empty room and it will put in sofas, and artists are creating avatars and making movies from them. But a human has to give the intent and the emotion, and the tools themselves, Photoshop and the internet, were already there. AI is only more efficient. Without the human touch it is junk.
Why do audiences care who made the art?
Dutch painter Han van Meegeren forged Vermeers in the 1930s and 1940s and sold one to the Nazi leader Hermann Göring. After he proved his forgery in 1945 to avoid a treason charge, the works lost their value though they were physically unchanged. Psychologist Paul Bloom argues in How Pleasure Works that people value objects partly for their history and not just their appearance.
Why do people still watch humans play chess?
IBM's Deep Blue beat world champion Garry Kasparov in a match in 1997, and engines have far surpassed top humans since. Even so, human tournaments draw large audiences, and champions such as Magnus Carlsen are famous. Spectators follow the pressure, nerves, and mistakes of a person, which an engine lacks.
How do creators use AI as a tool?
Image models can be given a photo of an empty room and asked to add furniture, a job real-estate marketers call virtual staging. Visual effects teams have used machine-learning tools for years, for example to remove backgrounds or to de-age actors on screen. Musicians use software to separate vocals from instruments in old recordings.
