We talk too much about hallucination and too little about the more mundane elephant in the room that AI, whatever its effectiveness, will simply be used more for scam and deception than positive uses.

I dont think a few scams here and there outweight positive usecases

We're about to see our political campaigns flooded with fake videos, slander, fabrications, and misinformation. Used to be you could be relatively certain if something was a video it was too much effort to be photoshopped. Not true any more.

It's not just a few scams though. It's a lot of scams, and a lot of propaganda, and a lot of CSAM, and even beyond the overtly negative, it's a tidal wave of slop in music, in publishing, in everything else.
Some technology has more negative use cases than positive; this appears to be one of them.

I don't think a few stock photo replacements here and there outweigh the negative use-cases.

I find it fascinating that this is a popular anti-bitcoin argument, but (often) the same people making that argument actually find AI useful. So they experience a mild case of cognitive dissonance.

those oversized "teddy bear" pictures are horrifying, looks like something from day of the triffids

When I work as a freelancer, I get a lot of requests lately to create fake AI manipulated images for scams. Especially requests to generate fake IDs using AI. Personally, I feel that there is a need for AI watermarks on image generation models, but at the same time, if watermarks become mandatory, it would effectively kill the business viability of those models. It feels like the same problem as guns and gun control.

This should inform entrepreneurs: people want unique and beautiful flowers. I don’t see why it’s not possible to do at least some modifications with gene editing methods.

Medieval grifts are back. We urgently need a modern Jack and the Beanstalk movie.

Image generators should embed their prompts. And eBay should run a slop detector.
