do you think those 8 and 9 figure pieces of art will drop in value now that ai can replicate their style?

If anything, the price will go UP! Anyone can push a button, but it takes skill, effort, and talent to create your own artistic style & pieces over time. Human-created art will become more rare, if anything!
 
Wow that's pretty awesome.

And yeah I find Twitter embed is really hit and miss, and yeah if you're not logged in it does not show everything. IMO it was a mistake to do that, should be wide open for guests to read.

What's cool is that AI now has 2 new features:

1. Style tuner
2. Character consistency

Style tuner lets you take your style & use AI to apply it to your images & videos:

Then adding consistency between generated images:

An older tutorial on achieving that, although the software has improved over the last few months to make it more pushbutton:

Sam Altman: The extraordinary firing of an AI superstar

Sam Altman, one of the biggest names in tech, was sacked from ChatGPT-maker OpenAI without warning.

Mira took over as interim CEO on Nov 17: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mira_Murati

I think that's not a coincidence. 8, 17 or 26 can either be very, very good or very, very bad. Remains to be seen if this will be good for us or them.

Since I know you care about context: Oh no, 48 billion of 2.75 (or would that have been 2.798?) trillion market cap. Pretty sure you lost more relative wealth buying one of your weird specialized kitchen gadgets. I hope this throws a major wrench in Microsoft embedding AI in all their shit. Apparently they're backporting that to Windows 10 now, which means I'll be buying a Mac sooner than later, but maybe I'll just go to Linux since I can't imagine too much not being feasible for my use there these days (already am Firefox focused for web, and stuff like documents and the like shouldn't have any glaring compatibilities these days I don't believe; Steam has already made Linux functional enough for the level of gaming I'm at these days).

I think you also have things backwards. Seems Altman was the one pushing profit motive and the board (which is literally managed by a non-profit organization) was worried about what he was actually up to. We'll maybe see what's what as time goes on and more details come out. But seems very likely he was pushing things too fast (and/or overpromising in order to hype investment, which they definitely should balk at after what we're seeing with crypto and AI is basically the enterprise tech version of crypto).

I smell something Musk-y. The interim CEO is ex-Tesla.

Altman is very Musky in his behavior (actually specifically in regards both have been sounding alarms about AI while they push it and profit from it). Being ex-Tesla perhaps they're like "yeah not going through another egomaniacal caution to the wind a-hole getting power to dictated anything they want".
