 Artificial Intelligence's Bright Exterior has Dark Interior Motives

by Jillian Drummond

        The creators of artificial intelligence programs have gotten the world in an uproar about AI. They claim it can do a number of life-changing tasks with the help of their new technology. However, many artists have been wondering what these changes could mean for them and their careers.
    
    Generative AI like ChatGPT claims to be able to write music and essays, manipulate media files, and much more all within seconds. For artists who have spent their whole lives perfecting their craft, this can be a little intimidating.

    Being an artist is already enough of a challenge to try and make a living off of, and with robots emerging in the artistic arena— you can bet it will only get much harder. A Forbes article recently tells of a work of art created by AI that even won an award at a state fair (read about that here). 

    Seeing the income and recognition that AI has taken from all of these artists, artists are fearful of a lack of regulation with this rapidly pressing technology. 

    Despite its promises of 'speeding along the thinking process' and 'giving everyone access to infinite creativity', artificial intelligence is riding the line of inhumane with the number of social repercussions it has caused so far.

    How would AI art be regulated? How do we consider what's fair and what isn't? I guess that's up for the judges to decide. I agree that AI art should be regulated, but how it's done feels like a whole new battle.

      that AI should be regulated, not specifically AI art

 Students Are Using Artificial Intelligence to Do Homework for Them by Jillian Drummond     Currently, teachers across the world are struggling with this new technology in a whole different aspect than the rest of us, which is teaching their students. Many programs have  emerged with the development of AI, including programs that can write essays while dodging plagiarism filters.       The top three programs in the field are  Textero.AI ,  Jasper AI , and  Copy AI . These types of programs are meant to write for you in an academic style and are marketed with questionable phrases including "plagiarism-free".  Image: Evolving AI by John Darkow     This has introduced teachers (who already do not get paid nearly enough) to a whole new and unique obstacle.       Sure, there are now programs that schools and universities have found that can predict the likelihood  of essays being written with ...

 Can Artificial Intelligence Match Human Creativity? by Jillian Drummond     Many people across the world are concerned with the potential capabilities of artificial  intelligence at the rate they are evolving. Even back in 2014, big names in science like Steven Hawking and Elon Musk warned about the potential destruction AI could cause. Read more about that here .     The underlying problem with artificial intelligence is that these programs are trained on existing data and records. So, when fed more and more data, these AI programs only get stronger and more accurate, whereas humans are much more limited.  Human vs AI Artworks | Credit: Harsha Gangadharbatla, Empirical Studies of the Arts     But, is it just a new arrangement of previous works that these programs have scrapped? Or is it really a "new" work of art?     The answer is fairly simple... so far. Nothing technically "new" is being created.  Humankind's creativity is...
