I wonder if it will be possible to train a neural network to do our programming tasks for us?
Apparently the computational power required to make them larger grows exponentially (or geometrically?) so until we find new algorithms it might be a long time before the same technique can generate whole films and games and any coherent way.
Of course maybe that breakthrough will be announced tomorrow.
In art humans always look for novelty and authenticity and not for mechanical reproduction, which quickly becomes generic. When every guy or girl on the planet could create a DeviantArt account and start drawing, did that have an impact on professional art? Not really.
We've increased the total artistic output and reduced cost several magnitudes over through tech, and if anything it's increased the demand for human novelty rather than reduce it. But as soon as the 'AI' label gets slapped on it people start to have weird Terminator fantasies.
