This is all terrifying :slol:

Introducing Ubisoft Ghostwriter, an AI tool developed in-house that aims to support our scriptwriters by generating the first draft of our NPC barks - the phrases or sounds made by NPCs when players interact with the game world.

This tool was created hand-in-hand with scriptwriters to create more realistic NPC interactions by generating variations on a piece of dialogue See how our teams will use AI to handle repetitive tasks, and free up time to work on other core game elements.

I think I might retrain in some field where an all-powerful AI cannot steal my strawberry floating job.

NONE OF US ARE SAFE

BRB retraining in "Athletes and sports competitors".

How do roles such as slaughterhouses, dish washers or metal pourers not have any tasks exposed to AI

If they can pick raspberries, they can pick spuds.

AI will meet and quickly surpass human intelligence. Machines will meet and quickly surpass (in many ways they already have, for several decades) human capability.

Combine the two, and what task would you put a human on for any reason other than not having the resource available to get AI to do it instead?

The only jobs humans will be needed for are the ones deemed too menial and unimportant to waste money on by installing an AI workforce. As the cost of installing this AI workforce goes down, and the capability of employers to do so goes up, the sphere of human jobs will shrink indefinitely.

And this is good, provided a person's quality of life is not dependent on their personal productivity but on the productivity of society as a whole :simper:

To be honest, though, this sort of paradigm shift has happened before already with Google. Internet search being revolutionised in such a way that you have instant access to the precise information you’re looking for has impacted what a lot of jobs are, my own included.

For instance, it’s rare that any developer nowadays needs fluency in the programming or scripting language they use, nor do they need to actually learn what the answers are to any of the issues they encounter. The job is learning how to find the answers. Identifying likely causes of what you’re up against and having the knack to unearth or form the correct solution, armed with the collective knowledge of the internet. It’s why there’s been such a rise in multi-disciplinary “full stack” developers these past decades. The bar to be proficient in a particular role has been so lowered that most individuals have the capacity now to be jacks of all trades, and mastery of those trades is less necessary for a company to achieve its goals.

The coming AI-assisted revolution is just another layer of abstraction to “work”. Now the developer’s job becomes having the knack to ask the AI in the correct way to get the desired result, and also to be able to identify the desired result when you see it. The AI won’t be trusted by itself to make the correct decision just as much as Google’s “I’m Feeling Lucky” button was never, ever trusted to get what you’re looking for on the first hit, even though it had an extremely high success rate in doing so. I wouldn’t be looking at any of these demos thinking “well that’s me redundant”, but rather “think of how much easier my job will be now” and of how much more productive I can be.

All this is from the lens of my own profession, I understand that other jobs can and will be impacted differently.

Well, if the industrial revolution taught us anything, it is that your proviso shall be torn asunder and buried under the laughter of those with the power to affect that quality of life.

Not gonna lie, that video in the opening post makes me think I'm going to need a new job soon :lol:

The potential for Misinformation and Disinformation with that technology is huge.

I'd say this was some gross kind of digital black face, benefiting from the appearance of diversity without ever having to pay or even deal with models from a non white ethnic background, but they're getting rid of all models and just using diversity as an excuse with a more surface level positive spin rather than they simply loathe paying people for doing work.

We're so strawberry floated aren't we
