Feels like AI generated art is approaching a sort of singularity at this point. Progress getting very exponential.

These things take months and months to train (hardly fast progress). Any new model that’s coming out is generally known in the atmosphere (not unpredictable) and these applications were pretty expected the day stable diffusion came out.

"months and months"

At the beginning of this year, most technical people would have told you that graphic design was a decade from being automated, and creative video production more.

Now we are at "months and months".

That this would have come out was totally predictable and expected to most in the know people in the ML world (we basically had proto versions of it summer 2021). Not really the unpredictable trajectory I associate with a singularity

Only if you have low standards of what constitutes research on artificial intelligence and art perception.
