   "I am utterly disgusted. I would never wish to incorporate this technology into my work at all. I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself. I feel like we are nearing the end of times. We humans are losing faith in ourselves."

      AI is certainly stupid to some extend.                                            But whether the title and sub-title generated for an article, and that was modified intelligently can work normally, that I'm curious, and guesting.                                     I wouldn't in anyway put  AI phrase, two or three words sentenses into my reads.

         I hear you. It's what you feel comfortable doing.

            Kenna, you're wellcome.                                        Besides, hubpages is not a site for AI. But you can get into trouble useing the tool here.                                      One of us here had tried the bot, and found it a bitter pill to swallow. I wouldn't name names here.                                        But other websites that are AI complaint are there. People are free to try they troubles there.

   We're about to enter a really weird time for humankind. Goodness knows what will happen.
   
   Another Pandora's box is being opened and the consequences will be huge.
   
   We can only hope that the benefits will outweigh the negatives but it's difficult to feel optimistic.

      Paul, We must keep our focus on art, actual.

         I think what's happened with social media shows how shockingly easy it is to manipulate human emotions.
         
         Much of it's focused on generating anger and outrage because that's where the money is. The algorithms just boost anything that gets a lot of comments and shares and that tends to be controversial material.
         
         I've got a feeling that AI will be exponentially better at generating the stuff that gets promoted. I can imagine the machines getting good at creating emotional impact through trial and error on a massive scale.
         
         Health sciences may well improve but it seems inevitable that AI is going to be used for financial exploitation, political misinformation, repression, and warfare.
         
         The most unnerving thing is that I believe it's going to get harder and harder to know what's "real" and what isn't.
         
         It's relatively easy to reject AI art when it contains flaws but what happens when it's indistinguishable from human-made?

            Yes. AI is a social issue. I used to count on Academia to set a standard. Now, the president of Harvard, Gay, was caught plagiarising her academic paper, and getting away with it by simply editing her thesis is shocking. Society has become complacent and lazy. But you can't AI ballet, Broadway shows or any live art form. Perhaps we will return to memberships of the Opera and Symphony.

               I like opera and symphonies but most people don't.
               
               If there are any limitations, they will be set by the big corporations and governments. Academia doesn't generally have much power, if any, in this sort of situation.
               
               Power always ultimately rests with those who have money and/or violence at their disposal. It's an awful thing to say but it's true.
               
               Another problem is that everyone will have AI, not just friendly powers, and other countries/cultures have very different ideas from our own about how a healthy society and wider world are supposed to function.
               
               It enables increased political oppression in some places and makes some sort of AI arms race inevitable, as far as I can see.
               
               The awful thing is that we contributed to making the internet so data-rich. We should be compensated as AI relies on the sort of stuff that we created but whether that will actually happen, I don't know.

                  More people will become interested in live art as AI dilutes writing, film and other visual art forms. As far as AI paying us, I think it will happen, click per view. I company posted such application on a job board, recently.
