That's a tempting position to take. But we will have to take it with our fingers crossed, knowing that AI may still cross the next gap, and then the next, and...Rum wrote: ↑Tue Jun 12, 2018 9:12 pmI suspect the latter - with no actual knowledge of the programming involved. Artistic creation assumes some sort of inspiration - often out of the blue - a confluence of skill, ability, imagination and flare. Programming an engine to win a game - however complex - doesn't seem to me to be that at all.
Unless of course they can now code for imagination and flare..

Re: Art is dead
The latest fad is a poverty social. Every woman must wear calico,
and every man his old clothes. In addition each is fined 25 cents if
he or she does not have a patch on his or her clothing. If these
parties become a regular thing, says an exchange, won't there be
a good chance for newspaper men to shine?

Re: Art is dead
There's a lot of hubris in AI research at the moment on account of a breakthrough that might make it better at doing a particular task with big data. Basically a powered-up expert system that's been around for decades. Could make it better at randomly creating in the style of a artist whose works are numerous like a Picasso, and even then a human would be required to choose between 'interesting' and banal cos the AI wouldn't know.

Like randomly creating posts like yours? But then you'd be a redundant system, Crump.

No. God plans it all, down to the last belch and fart. Not a sparrow falls.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

'God holds the trump card but it takes a china-man to let wind in the proper manner' - that's a ancient welsh proverb.
