AI ARTISTS VS. AI ENGINEERS
Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter
AI Artists give AI systems full creative control, while AI engineers operate under constraints to optimize for quality. The distinction between the two is a spectrum, and most people fall somewhere in the middle, closer to one side or the other. While large language models are very powerful fools, in the absence of the ability to do fine-grained learning in the way a human does, they need stricter guardrails than a truly general-purpose system would ideally want. Companies should focus on building trust with customers by doing well-scoped, expected things.
