> The future of these high-fidelity (but not perfect) generative AI systems is in realizing we're going to need "humans in the loop"
Last weekend my 7 year old decided he wanted to make and sell a shirt with an image of a space cat shooting a laser gun. It took him like 1 minute to use free Dalle3 to make and choose an image. Then I showed him a website to remove the background. Then I showed him a tool to AI-upscale the image. Then we uploaded it to Amazon Merch, it got approved after a few hours, and now it's for sale on Amazon. It took us maybe 10 minutes of effort end-to-end. Involved no artists.
Funny enough, Amazon is full of AI-designed merch, there were like 7 pages of shirts with space cats with lasers.
