AI taking over the world?
2023 has turned into the Year of Artificial Intelligence. Generative AI has burst on the scene, with ChatGPT and Midjourney regularly appearing in the press.
Probably everyone who’s reading this has played with one of these technologies. Who hasn’t been amazed by giving ChatGPT a random prompt and receiving a detailed response in seconds? Or generating art as above, which would have taken legendary comic book artist Jim Steranko all day to produce but took Midjourney less than two minues.
How do you feel about these emerging AI technologies? Vote in our poll and let us know!
