      Mushrooms are not plants and would not be studied by a botanist. It's a mycologist that studies mushrooms. Mushrooms are an entirely different kingdom from plants or animals. They don't photosynthesize (no strong light needed), they absorb oxygen and release CO2 like animals, they drop spores for asexual reproduction, they require very high humidity, and they can grow to full size in mere days. They also contain protein and are very nutritious.

      Is it “good”? I suppose it’s better than no disclaimer at all, but is it actually “good”?
      All of these AI art generators are built on stolen artwork. How much money will this creator make from this video? How much more money will he make with 50 AI images that make it more interesting to look at? And how many of the original artists that the AI was trained on will see any of that money?
      None. And that’s by design. AI generative art is just a process of laundering stolen copyrighted material. And using it, especially it in a monetized video, is not a difficult moral quandary. It’s literally profiting from theft.
      --
      And I’m not commenting here to make anyone feel bad. These AI tools are interesting and there’s nothing fundamentally wrong with the technology. The problem is with the work that was stolen to train the neural networks, and the exploitation and circumvention of protections that exist to allow people to make a living from their work.
      ---
      EDIT: I appear to be blocked and unable to respond to all these people. ​That's fine. I'm not interested in debating ethics with people who think there's no problem with using AI art in this way. To the people who try to justify it as harmless, or indistinguishable from human creative works, you're simply wrong and there's no moral high ground on your side. Your argument boils down to "it conveniences me enough that I stopped caring about the people it hurts." These AI companies made it easy for you to feel this way by obfuscating every part of their process. But if you think about it for more than 5 seconds you'll realize they had to have stolen most of the art they used to train their models. And by using the tool, especially in a monetized work, you're profiting from the theft of other people's work. That's all.

      @@kyledsweeney I look at it slightly differently, while AI has its good benefits (easily do what you want without much investment) and bad "benefits" (take someone's work without their knowledge) and its drawbacks (not being creative, taking low paid/free labor to make datasets for teaching the model, etc.) there's something else to consider.
      Imagine that someone looks at a picture, they remember the picture so well that they can re-draw it. You can get really close to redrawing a picture, but as long as you drew it and there's obvious differences, you'll rarely be accused of stealing the art, but you'll more often get accused of stealing the idea. You could technically say that AI does the exact same, but differently. Humans can download any picture and reproduce it in their own way, AI while not being creative, can also use real data and reproduce it in a "unique" way.
      So consider that maybe it's not that important what goes in, but what goes out. Still, AI is rotten to the core and I am in no way willing to defend terrible practices.

    • @kyledsweeney
      @kyledsweeney Місяць тому

      @@tomsterbg8130 I think reproducibility is for sure a moral argument you can make against AI. I've heard arguments that the process of training a neural network is basically how a human brain learns, and while that may be true at a high level, the specifics of the process of learning/training are inarguably inhuman.
      And of course there are the ethics of automation replacing people's jobs. Under capitalism, any automation (the means of production) that is under the control of capital will be horrible for the workers that the automation was designed to replace.
      But most people aren't that critical of capitalism, and of course the creators of these tools have given their best attempts to smooth over the moral question of using a tool that puts someone else's livelihood at risk.
      ---
      So, most of my arguments against AI in a comments section like this one are boiled down to the morally unambiguous. Things that, in general, everyone agrees on. Almost every country in the world has laws protecting creators and their work. If you don't want someone to use your art or music or text or creative idea, especially in a way that profits from off if it, you have legal protections. You can tell people how your work can be used and you have avenues for compensation if someone violates those protections. The ethics of the ownership of creative ideas or works are pretty much settled. There's no ambiguity. We basically all agree, to the point that world governments have codified it into their laws.
      AI/ML fundamentally depends on huge datasets. It's not possible to get the results displayed in this video without collecting an extremely large number of images. And every major AI image generator has admitted that their input datasets contain images where they did not obtain consent from their original creators. There are a number of reasons for that, but at the end of the day, their datasets contain stolen images. Images that *should* be under the protection of copyright and intellectual property laws that have been circumvented.
      So, that's my argument. AI image generators were created from stolen work. If artists controlled the AI art generators, or if they were awarded something like residuals every time an image was generated from a dataset that contained their original work, it would potentially be a bit less of a problem. But as of right now, profiting from AI artwork is profiting from theft.

      I must admit that I’ve derived quite a bit of enjoyment from the following picture in my mind: Several researchers, scrambling around their lab and trying to save their robot w/ a mushroom computer as part of its analytical processing array experiment. The problem being that upon activating the completed test subject, all that happened was that the exclaimed, “I finally understand the nature of time!” before becoming inextricably fixated on an art history textbook.
      Then one of the grad student engineers has an epiphany and puts on “Electric Ladyland” to see what would happen. The robot develops a look of intense concern as the track “and the gods made love” begins to filter through its audio processors where the math of music is then pulled apart and analyzed by its synthetic brain. The head researcher looks over at the young engineer who’d put on the music. Had this young man (or woman, I’m hip) just doomed the entire project?
      Then, 3 struts of a muted chord and Jimi’s voice, “Have you ever been, to Electric Ladyland…” and all of sudden a visage of instant relief and euphoria appears on the robot’s face as it begins operating within nominal parameters, responding appropriately to all subsequent queries. Folders full of paper thrown into the air, researchers hugging and exchanging hearty handshakes. End scene. If this isn't the future somewhere, somehow, then we’ve made a mistake.

    Hey Simon, thanks so much for covering this. I actually worked on mycelial computation as part of my research work in cognitive computing. One note, it's highly effective at high throughput, parallelised but extremely high latency computation with infinitely configurable IO. We see this as an excellent opportunity for 2 specific Computational/interface problems. 1: AI inference 2: Brain computer interfaces. With the second being particularly important for us. Imagine being able to take a small series of injections, and a brain computer interface will literally build itself inside your head, no invasive surgery, no risk of an EMP or electrocution frying your brain, and the ability to remove it with a small course of antifungal medications. This may sound frightening to some, but to us the idea of non "hard", fully reversible BCI tech that could act as a neural symbiote is extremely exciting. The best of fungal advantages for neural health, the ability to have a functional, near cellular level resolution BCI that is also fully reversible without invasive surgery or potentially any lasting damage is incredibly exciting.

      I'm getting into mushrooms, this sounds fascinating! I know fungi in your lungs can be catastrophic, but that's about where my knowledge ends.
      Recently I saw an article that said scientists were shocked by a type of mushroom sprouting from a living frog's skin. I can see how that would be alarming since most mushrooms are saprotrophic, at least the edible ones I'm learning about. Are there mushrooms growing in the woods that have spores that can take root in living human tissue? Other internal organs? Or does it always affect the lungs? I'd be really interested in knowing some of the species or buzzwords I can use to research more into this topic.
      I've had the idea to recreate MIT's rat brain computer for awhile, but doing the same thing with mushrooms looks a lot more sane to the outside observer. It would be cool to get a mycelium network to fly a flight simulator

    Yet another perfect example of "As above so below". I've watched many videos on the topic of slime molds and fungus and it is quite arguable that mycelium already make up the neural pathways of a large portion of the earth and that their topography, a robust desire to branch out, connect and interface with each other and the other plants in their vicinity are demonstrative of this. The idea of mushroom-to-brain interfacing has been ongoing since they were first discovered by hominids and other creatures. Research on the effects of Lions mane, turkey tail, and psychoactive mushrooms sort of lends credence to the idea. This was a completely fascinating exploration of this subject and I would love to possibly hear more from you in the future on this topic. Absolutely outstanding video. Wonderful stuff! 👍

    So they CAN do some computing-type stuff if you're willing to jump over a LOT of hoops. But you know what you could do instead? Use normal computing technology. If you wanna interface with biology and see what you can do with that, the human brain is probably the way you want to go, not fungi. Best part of this video was all those photos of the fungi growing on computers. Someone had fun doing that.
