AI.

As a user of ChatGPT, Stable Diffusion and similar models my takeaway is mostly that these tools will enable a new paradigm of dialogue interfaces with computers, and will vastly improve our creativity, automate and filter through and visualize large amount of data and get insights, ability and offload computational brainpower, empower developers etc.

Its all about the iterative feedback loop between computer and human.

It might disrupt some jobs but it will improve peoples current output and also create new jobs. As this system is based on dialogue, and that is a critical component to this, there needs to be a human that takes the creative decisions off the output of the AI. Thr idea of AI running off building stuff on its own is still decades ahead, but we will see many interesting uses of this system that will make our tasks easier.

However the big concern for me is if the technology is gamed by governments in collision with big tech, training it towards their own end, Its vital that its open sourced or democratised and that the AI model is transparent and we as users have control over the configurations.
