I just realized something: since most people have no idea what AI is, it could easily be used to scam people. I think that will be it’s main function originally.
Like the average person does not have access to real time stock data. You could make a fake AI program that pretends to be a trading algorithm and makes a ton of pretend money as the mark watches. The data would be 100% real and verifiable, just picked a few seconds after the the fact.
Since most people care a lot about money, this will be some of the first widespread applications of real time AI. Just tricking people out of money.
Yeah I’ll admit I was freaked out at the beginning. So I learned about models, used them, and got familiar with them. Now I’m less freaked out and more “oh my god so many people are going to get scammed/tricked”.
Go on Facebook and you’ll see it’s a good 50-70% AI garbage now. My favorite are “log cabin” and kitchen posts that are just images of them with blanket titles like “wish I lived here” with THOUSANDS of comments of people saying “YES” or “it’s so beautiful”. Of course it is it has no supports! The cabinets are held up by nothing! There are 9 kinds of lanterns and most are floating. Jesus people are not ready for it.
The “Willa Wonka Experience” event comes to mind. The images on the website were so obviously AI-generated, but people still coughed up £35 a ticket to take their kids to it, and were then angry that the “event” was an empty warehouse with a couple of plastic props and three actors trying to improvise because the script they’d been given was AI-generated gibberish. Straight up scam.
