Majority of AI Researchers Say Tech Industry Is Pouring Billions Into a Dead End

Why would you need anyone to buy your products when you can just enjoy them yourself?
Because there's always a bigger fish out there to get you. Or that's what trillionaires will tell themselves when they wage a robotic war. This system isn't made to last the way it's progressing right now.

I'm a software developer and I know that AI is just the shiny new toy from which everyone uses the buzzword to generate investment revenue.
99% of the crap people use it for us worthless. It's just a hammer and everything is a nail.
It's just like "the cloud" was 10 years ago. Now everyone is back-pedaling from that because it didn't turn out to be the panacea that was promised.

Really good photography is actually pretty hard and the best photographers are in high demand.
It involves a ton of settings for the camera, frequently post processing to balance out anything that wasn't perfect during the shoot. Plus there is a ton of blocking, lighting, and if doing portraits and other planned shoots there is a lot of directing involved in getting the subjects to be in the right positions/showing the right emotions, etc. Even shooting nature requires a massive amount of planning and work beyond a few camera settings.
Hell, even stock photos tend to be a lot of work to set up!
If you think that someone taking a photo in focus with adequate lighting and posted it to instagram is the same as professional photography, then you have no idea what is involved.
it could also be me being bitter about how schools don't ever offer the raw image files after you pay for the photo. If some asshole wants to ruin the image with post processing they should at least be forced to give the raw to the client.
