I have to wonder how much releasing these models will "poison the well" and fill the internet with AI generated images that make training an improved model difficult. After all if every 9/10 "oil painted" image online starts being from these generative models it'll become increasingly difficult to scrape the web and to learn from real world data in a variety of domains. Essentially once these things are widely available the internet will become harder to scrape for good data and models will start training on their own output. The internet will also probably get worse for humans since search results will be completely polluted with these "sort of realistic" images which can ultimately be spit out at breakneck speed by smashing words from a dictionary together...

Look at carpentry blogs, recipe blogs. Nearly all of it is junk content. I bet if you combined GPT and imagen or dalle2 you could replace all of them. Just provide a betty crocker recipe and let it generate a blog that has weekly updates and even a bunch of images - "happy family enjoying pancakes together"

I can see the future as being devoid of any humanity.

I see the opposite future.

As AI advances, a lot of people will look after experiencing life outside the digital world.

Even digital communication will not be trustworthy anymore with deepfaces and everything else, so people will want to get together more often.

Edit: for the lazy ones, yeah, digital will be a sad and heartless environment...

This is my theory as well. There'll be a short period where some of us at the forefront will enrich themselves by flooding the internet with imagery never seen before. That'll be a bubble where people think "abundance" has been solved but then it'll pop as people start to not trust anything they see online anymore and as you say, only trust and interact with things in the real world (wouldn't surpise me if regulation got involved here too somehow).
