Perhaps non-perfection will become the new trend vis-a-vis the opposite today?

Even on HN, people have already begun to accuse others of writing comments with GPT-3 without disclosing so. Whether joking or not, this feels like a glimpse into future human attitudes towards this breed of creation.

If we equate human-created == valuable, and AI-generated == not valuable, but we as humans cannot reliably tell the difference, then I'm picturing a future of distrust where creators/consumers suspect or accuse each other of fraud.

Such behavior is already prevalent with social media today, so why wouldn't it be amplified even further when new and advanced technology is introduced? DALL-E 2 isn't even at an AGI-level and it has already cleared some people's bar for what qualifies as "production-ready art."

I also recall the recent article where Ed Sheeran said he films his creative processes to prove he was the true author - and that was an authorship case solely involving human-created works. In the future, "pure" artists might have to adapt a similar protocol to protect those kinds of virtues.

Hell, I can't be 100% sure (outside of my part) that we are not already there right this second.

You: The forum singularity will be reached when the GPT-3 generated responses themselves include accusations of writing comments via GPT3. Them: Hell, I can't be 100% sure (outside of my part) that we are not already there right this second. You: Are you even a human responding to me? Them:

Response:

I can't be sure that I am a human, but I can be pretty certain that I am not a GPT-3 generated response.

If nature can create a painting via a human that evolved, then it’s not much of a stretch that nature can create a painting via AI via a human that evolved. I wouldn’t call that “no effort” — it took billions of years to produce that art!
