The Download: AI co-creativity, and what Trump’s tariffs mean for batteries
1 min read
Summary
MIT Technology Review has published an article outlining concerns that artificially generated content is threatening to take the creative buzz out of human artists and designers.
Provided the rapid advancement of generative technology, some are concerned that the AI capabilities could eliminate the need for innovative thinkers and creators.
However, the author stresses that the goal of AI development is to enhance, not replace, human creativity with tools that can work with people to push the boundaries of what is possible, laying the groundwork for co-creativity between humans and machines.
The article notes the rapid development of advanced language model technology, suggesting that these systems could be used to automatically generate copy, but the resulting content would be purely functional with no creativity or emotion.
This content would essentially be written by nobody and read by nobody.
