It doesn't even need to be good at replacing humans.
It needs to be good enough.

Most of the corpos buying into AI don't really care much about the quality. They just want the fantasy of running a business without actually paying employees. @datarama @Nezchan @thomasfuchs I've seen "A.I." "art" showing salmon swimming upstream. Salmon fillets. Because you eat cookies off the floor while dead salmon swim upstream. |
@Nezchan @thomasfuchs This is exactly what we see with the image generators.
Their output is often uncanny. They make weird mistakes that no human artist would; mistakes that reveal that they fundamentally don't *understand* anything (eg. all those AI-generated "cozy christmas" motifs a month ago, that featured cookies littering the floors - the model associates cookies with christmas, but doesn't understand that you don't eat them off the floor!).
And they're still displacing visual artists.
