AI might bring on the golden age of artists.

It can't create anything unique itself. It needs human creativity.

Any artist imitating basic stuff will be replaced.

Unique and creative people will be in high demand.

Possibly AI companies will start paying these artists.

@Jayyanginspires So he deleted the emails, but didn't unsubscribe from them?

He emptied the bucket, but didn't turn off the hose.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@Dr_Gingerballs Completely agree. I think there will be opportunities for creative people whose work will be used to train AI.

Everybody else, who copied other's work even before AI, are screwed.

@CtrlAltDwayne I don't like the word slop that much. But this is the epitome of AI slop.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@Jordy_vD_ Okay, but give us those full games then.

I'm not criticizing. I'm genuinely still waiting for even a single full game that's fully vibe coded.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@hey_madni If it's the 'whole game', show us. Give us access.

It's a tech demo. Just like all the other people posting these things.

I'm not criticizing. I'm genuinely still waiting for even a single full game that's fully vibe coded.

When websites were built with Wordpress, Webflow and other builders, nobody complained.

Now that websites are made with AI, people call it slop.

Slop has always been there. People just seem to hate AI.

@kzitouni1 Complex work is, well, complex.

You may get away with simple B2C products, but useful software is usually complex.

Like the 'mom test' is BS.

Just because your mom doesn't understand deeply technical workflows/products, doesn't mean the product is bad.

@victor_bigfield This advice would have worked 5 years ago.

Now people will call it AI slop and downvote.

@irinatoxi Some human jobs are there for liability and safety. Even though machines can do it.

Air traffic controllers, architects, engineers, doctors, etc.

This could speed up human workflows a lot. But in these jobs a human should remain in the loop.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

Who's going to bite the bullet and vibe code an actual full AAA game?

I'm not criticizing, I actually want to see that.

How much does it cost in tokens?
How long will it take?
Will it be good?

@builtbysketch My work experience tells me that people over-estimate how complete something is.

The final 10% or 1% can take as much time and effort as the rest of it.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@ashebytes Makes me wonder, what was the original app that AI got its training data from?

It didn't come up with it on its own. It can't do that. It had to use someone else's work.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@chess_feed The only way M1 is possible, is if black's last move was e5.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@headzoo Subtly wrong documentation.

This is also a mayor issue with AI.

It's often almost correct, but confidently wrong.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@zarazhangrui Honestly, I don't think it's an attention span issue. It's a tolerance issue.

People's willingness to spend time on boring, irrelevant or unrewarding things has changed.

They still have the attention span to play video games or watch short for videos for hours.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@chess_feed Yes, but there's even more possibilities to order letters or notes.

Yet we have the same types of stories and melodies pop up.

Not all moves are useful.

[Ryan Faust @RyanRFaust]

@thesupermanmx I don't speak Korean.

If I tried to write a Korean book with AI, I would be worse at it than someone who does speak it.

@LeoBuilds_ I'm surprised Evernote still exists. Let alone run ads.
