I'm sure you know that putting the purchase of EZKeys in a list with WW3 was tounge-in-cheek. But regarding EZAnything, I've resisted the temptation in favor of physical instruments, but I'll probably cave-in at some point  Ha! That's what I get for having multiple pages open!

Interestingly enough, I could see AI negatively impacting the very high-tech worker that created it in the first place! Precisely! AI is capable of writing code - it's theoretically possible that someone could create a new AI by using AI to write all of it, and not actually writing a single line of code by hand. Funny thought
A few of those video game companies have had big flops recently. Released, then recalled/cancelled.
Wonder how long it takes them to make the correlation and have to ask themselves about that, at least once ... eventually Yep, I've seen that a lot in the last couple years, Concord being the most recent (for those who don't know, the game servers were shut down after only 2 weeks due to poor sales, and all purchases were refunded). It's probably less likely to do with AI and more because investors want a reliable return on their dollars, making the studios go for more generic copypasta than actually creating something interesting and worthwhile. Younger generations are getting smart - they're less likely to spend money on the newest big game when it's nearly identical to a dozen others that are cheaper or they already own. At least in the case of video games, many gamers have ethical issues with the use of AI to generate game assets. Many companies are now being forced to make announcements detailing exactly how much and what content was generated by AI, meaning that some gamers won't buy a game if they feel like there was "too much" AI content. Friendly reminder that our RealTracks are entirely created by humans

What if AI actually ends up creating the solution for the power issue by a combination of creating more energy efficient systems, and cleaner more powerful ways of creating energy in the first place?
Also, this is obviously not the first time in human history industries have drastically changed. People need to learn new skills and, in short, change. Is it possible that more jobs may be created by AI than it eliminates?

Precisely! AI is capable of writing code - it's theoretically possible that someone could create a new AI by using AI to write all of it, and not actually writing a single line of code by hand. You are absolutely right and I have personally seen this at play. The only computer language I still engage with is Wolfram Language, which is embedded within Mathematica. A few weeks back I was writing a small program and couldn't quite remember how to code a certain subtask so I simply asked my AI assistant and within seconds I had copy and pastable code that worked. I could then say to it "This is nice, but can you add such and such" and it dutifully delivered what I needed. The strength (danger?) of LLMs is that they can be trained to be fluent in most any language; be it English, French, C++, Fortran, Chemistry, Physics, Music, and what really cuts close to home for me; Engineering. There will be massive up-sides to this; drug discovery comes to mind, but sadly, many white-collar jobs will be subsumed by this technology. And as I mentioned in another thread; it is now to the point where it can reason its way through multi-step problems at a PhD level. OpenAI has created something that is literally astounding.

Yes, AI is a new frontier, and it has two sides, 'good' and 'bad' depending on how it is used. Regardless, it's here to stay. We better get used to it.
My big concern is that it may allow some in society to simply 'dumb-down', potentially diminishing the motivation, talent, skill and innovation of people. That would be disastrous.

Some here seem to welcome our new overlords .. <grin>
Simon kind of made my earlier point clearer, though unintentionally -
" It's probably less likely to do with AI and more because investors want a reliable return on their dollars, making the studios go for more generic copypasta than actually creating something interesting and worthwhile."
For AI to 'know' something it learns from existing stuff (and some people are upset their 'stuff' is being used), which is likely why the human originality aspect is getting lost in some aspects.
I think the arts will (in the long run) overcome AI due to human originality.
