AI Anatomy Class · Part 10 · The world after ChatGPT

91. AI and us

Q. Who owns a picture an AI drew? And what should I get ready for in the age of AI?

  1. AI can now see, reason, look things up and even use tools. How that power is used is up to people. Let's lay out some discussion cards.
  2. One: copyright. AI learned from people's text and pictures. Some say 'people learn by looking too', others 'ask and pay first'.
  3. Two: bias. If the data leans one way, the model learns that too (chapter 4). If we fix it, who decides what's 'fair'?
  4. Three: privacy. Where do your chats or a friend's photo go? Each service stores and uses them differently, so check.
  5. Four: careers. If AI does some work, how will jobs change? Predictions differ about which jobs will go and which will appear.
  6. None of the four cards has one right answer. But knowing how AI works helps you ask better questions and judge better.
  7. In Part 10, AI gained eyes, working, search, tools and a place in your phone. In Part 11, you build your own mini GPT!
