I have a few fears and concerns about AI in visual culture. I fear that AI will take jobs away from artists and make it harder than it already is to seek employment. Aside from job insecurity, AI can also be used to incriminate people for crimes they’ve never committed. How will courts know what’s real and what’s not? Not only that but how will people know the difference during election seasons? Video AI has evolved so much in one year. With the rise of Sora, this will become a legitimate threat.
If artists and creators want to address and respond to the collective concerns, they can probably show the public what the AI tools are capable of by stress testing it. This can show if the fears are valid or not and show how harmful the tools can become.
