and image generators don t understand what they are drawing. for example, microsoft s bing app now uses the dall e image generator. i asked it to draw me my initial made of liquid metal and it made this. pretty decent letter 5. it then said would you like me to add some sparks to it, and i said why not, and it turned it into this. i mean. where did the 5 go? the reason is it doesn t know what a letter 5 is. it doesn t think like a human, it doesn t understand anything. but ai generators like midjourney can do wonderful and weird things. and that s the main weakness here and why we can t trust it. if ai can create anything, then how do we know what s real? i don t think the pope ever went out dressed like this. but if we use it wisely,
that was marc showing us how ai in healthcare can be really useful. but on the flipside, when it comes to ai being used to generate things like art, it can be problematic. yeah, one of the big issues being copyright. i mean, who should own the images that al creates? it s something that ben derico has been investigating. ai art has taken a massive leap recently. i mean this one sold for over $400,000 at auction at christie s in 2018. with image generators like dall e and stable diffusion, almost anyone can create a new art in a matter of seconds. but the models that makes this art don tjust do it out of thin air. they have learnt to mimic styles, even specific artists, through a process called training where the models injest millions, sometimes billions of images, scraped from websites all around the web. combined with text describing
