This sublemmy is a place for sharing news and discussions about artificial intelligence, core developments of humanity's technology and societal changes that come with them. Basically futurology sublemmy centered around ai but not limited to ai only.

Rules:
  1. Posts that don't follow the rules and don't comply with them after being pointed out that they break the rules will be deleted no matter how much engagement they got and then reposted by me in a way that follows the rules. I'm going to wait for max 2 days for the poster to comply with the rules before I decide to do this.
  2. No Low-quality/Wildly Speculative Posts.
  3. Keep posts on topic.
  4. Don't make posts with link/s to paywalled articles as their main focus.
  5. No posts linking to reddit posts.
  6. Memes are fine as long they are quality or/and can lead to serious on topic discussions. If we end up having too much memes we will do meme specific singularity sublemmy.

Note:

My posts on this sub are currently VERY reliant on getting info from r/singularity and other subreddits on reddit. I'm planning to at some point make a list of sites that write/aggregate news that this subreddit is about so we could get news faster and not rely on reddit as much. If you know any good sites please dm me.

(Edit: potential BS) “AI Generated Artwork Just Feels Lazy”: Steam Will Ban 2023 Games That Make Use of AI Art (article from 30.06.2023) (fandomwire.com)

It was recently reported that Valve has been banning any Steam games if its’ programs detect AI generated art, unless those submitting the title can prove ownership of the intellectual property. This information comes from Twitter user, @simoncarless, who posted an excerpt from a Steam denial template. The post says the following:

“After reviewing, we have identified intellectual property in [Game Name Here] which appears to belongs to one or more third parties. In particular, [Game Name Here] contains art assets generated by artificial intelligence that appears to be relying on copyrighted material owned by third parties.”

“As the legal ownership of such Al-generated art is unclear, we cannot ship your game while it contains these Al-generated assets, unless you can affirmatively confirm that you own the rights to all of the IP used in the data set that trained the Al to create the assets in your game.”

“We are failing your build and will give you one (1) opportunity to remove all content that you do not have the rights to from your build. If you fail to remove all such content, we will not be able to ship your game on Steam, and this app will be banned.”

I’m a very old school computer graphic guy, 1980 onward. I can tell you that the same was said about computer graphics in general. It was considered even ‘less’ artistic than photography. But then, food for thought, one of the primary goals of computer graphics was to create ‘photorealistic’ images. Just like painting in the 60s and 70s. So everyone was imitating everyone.

A sculpture professor once dismissed some of my students’ art as being ‘as simple as pressing a button’.

It’s all art. None of it is lazy. Even lazy art is sometimes intentionally so.
