Imagining a future (not too far from now) where AI created content is much more ubiquitous than organically created content it will become harder to train AI models.

In order to avoid training an AI on AI created content model programmers may have to drill down into historical data to avoid corrupting the data set. Otherwise you may end up with an unrealistic recursive implementation.

Yeah there’s something called “Ai dementia” that’s referring to Ai trained on Ai generated images. It can get better in one aspect, but often gets worse in others. The thing about the image creation though in a world with Ai generated images is that there will always be a big industry of people compositing and making “meta-images” with Ai content, then also the critical factor of quality is merely human judgement.

I think it will be a slight problem with poor datasets, but ultimately an ocean of human selected and composited images will still make the Ai improve. Then also I think there will be a big market for artists who can *fix* the problems (cough* hands cough*) of Ai generated images/animation.

In other words, I think it will only be a problem if people stop caring about what is good and what sucks. Otherwise, I think the larger selection will just help the Ai distinguish good quality from bad.

(Not to mention methodology will probably get an order of magnitude boost in the next few years too. If there’s a downside, we will probably never see it)

AI dementia. It's wild to think about psychological disorders for AI models.

The first thing that came to mind reading that was how people's expectations have been heavily impacted by photoshopped food, fashion models, scenery, ect.

I can forsee a future where this continues to such a degree that the physical world becomes completely boring or uninteresting to a person.

I went to a college in the redwoods. The natural environment there was one of the most beautiful settings on the planet. I had a roommate who had never taken ten steps into that forest and I spent months trying to get him to come outside with me. He just wanted to play videogames, which was his choice, but he seemed unhappy and unhealthy.

One day we had a long discussion about it and the conclusion was that what he wanted to do was battle dragons, and there were no dragons outside.

I could not argument against that.
