Artificial Intelligence

Though I feel he's right that it depends on how exactly people use AI. Pumping out AI slop isn't the same thing as him using a voice changer. And I believe there's also a difference whether someone who is proficient in a domain (a musician in this example) uses AI, or someone uses it to summarize some news articles and then believes in all the inaccuracies and falsehoods the LLM introduced.

And my experience in the domain I'm comfortable in - computer programming - is a bit the other way around. Yesterday, I've spent >2h arguing with AIstudio. It'd fix one thing and at the same time introduce 3 other bugs. Not pay attention to concurrency at all and just wreck the data structures. There was some geometry and vector maths involved and it seems at least AIstudio isn't very good at that. It'd take the most convoluted approach and change half the project around instead of doing it the straightforward way. And while doing it not even get the maths right. I believe I could/should have written the same code myself in half the time it took me in tandem with AI... On the flipside, AI enables laymen to write computer code and I heard they get some good use out of it drafting and creating some smaller things, combining two things into one, or dealing with basic Linux issues... So I'm not sure, it might not be the same across domains.

(Or maybe it's me and I just haven't figured out yet how to apply AI in a way that contributes to my workflow. But it seems to me like it's a fine line, and not as obvious as with music.)
