    Once the “AI” industry leaves the subsidized-use stage this all falls over. Once users have to pay the actual energy and overhead costs per token “AI” use is gonna plummet.

      1. AI integration into business processes.
      2. Steal business processes and trade secrets.
      3. Destroy decision-making capability.
      4. Destroy production capability and capacity to deliver value and banish institutional knowledge (through layoffs)
      5. Replace incumbent market-leaders with like-for-like services, while destroying their ability to compete and also charging them for the privilege.

        I think that’s possible for some industries, particularly office bound areas like software and finance. Manufacturing, mining, maintenance, logistics, etc. all require human hands and minds 24/7, regardless of what marketing wanks say.

      For game development you probably do not need that. Stable diffusion runs on normal graphics cards, and when 3D asset generation becomes more useful it will transform game development.

      7 out of the top 10 token vendors are from China too who have much cheaper energy / nuclear. In like 4 years they’ll bring their own advanced chips to market and crash the costs.

      So both is still a bit off but especially game development will become completely transformed once we have better suited models for that and something like a “universal game engine” for advanced AI generated games. I’d say finally the end of micro transactions but probably you’ll buy AI tokens to allow you crafting your custom gear for an RPG lol.
