I must congratulate [Florida presidential candidate redacted] because his staffers just made history for him with the first confirmed AI-generated political photographic smear. Truly groundbreaking. Absolutely not political suicide.

No problem. The AI will generate another candidate instead.

P.S.
If all candidates were procedurally generated, the voters could just set on the "Auto-Elect" option, and stop bothering with it.

P.P.S.
Hard-coded ones are even more reliable, but some prefer config files.

As AI can not only paint visual patterns, but also read them deeply, not being tired...

... bye-bye, banknotes.

Problem with fake bank notes is the paper and special stuff like watermarks, holograms and probably the digital serial number. 
Don't see how AI help here its an issue with the printing. On the other hand if you are an country its not an major project. 
Germany did it during WW 2 and North Korea is doing it. But I guess in an bad way, they can not trade directly with the US so they have to cheat other with the fake money. 
Make me wonder why US don't return the favor, yes the currency is toilet paper anyway.

That we know of. It's one of the older tricks in the book, after all.

Russian arms control researcher team cackling after an apparent AI-generated paper features citations to works one of them never wrote - although, yes, hypersonic wonderwaffles are his area of expertise, and as his colleague comments, "these are cool prompts, gotta have to write those papers now".

I imagine the discovery of this means the author of the paper isn't laughing.

Funny experiment. We're all a little grid.

No Photoshop art anymore, no photo proofs anymore...

Probably, the GIMP will follow.

Once they have added it to Adobe Premier, no Holy Wood anymore.

The plot writers strike will face an unexpected sad end.

ChatGPT writes texts (definitely not worse than humans), MidJourney paints secneries, Adobe films the movie.

GoPro provide the video of reality, the user watches a movie in augmented reality. 

Honestly, I don't understand why AI's letter is getting so much attention. I tried to write a term paper thanks to AI, and all it could give me was other people's text that would not pass the plagiarism check. As a result, while trying to make this text unique, I could write something myself. When I need to do my coursework online, I turn to https://paperell.net/do-my-coursework to ensure the material's quality and that each text is unique. I also don't have to waste my time on editing. All the talks about AI are just hype.

 

It remains to wait until the AI makes a printer to make new people

NovelAI has recently introduced a nice feature which allows you to click on each world to see the weight/probability (?) of it and major alternative options AI was picking from.

This makes me wonder if it's possible for an image transformer to have an "Inspect" mode that allows you to see the keywords influencing the part of an image.

Been messing with a few of these, and I thought it should probably get a thread.

https://www.midjourney.com/home/

https://skylum.com/erase-objects

https://stability.ai/blog/stable-diffusion-public-release

Those are text prompts to images... incredibly fun to play with.

Midjourney:

Prompt was "the hydrogen sonata"

A Photoshop plugin I am thinking of getting does an astounding job at recovering faces/details in images. Gigapixel AI:

My grandfather, circa 1918. I think the AI did a decent job, the one on the right is shockingly close to what I saw in the mirror at his age.

To be clear, left is a scan of an old family photo, right is what gigapixel did in a couple seconds.

Indeed, neural networks are amazing in terms of technology and attention to detail. It is a pity that some photographers will leave the subject of editing and manual photo processing, as they will be replaced by artificial intelligence(( It's sad.
