AI is 'just a plagiarism machine that makes people lose their jobs' in the eyes of The Talos Principle 3's writers

The writers of The Talos Principle 3 express caution towards AI technology, with narrative designer Jonas Kyratzes stating it is largely "ludicrous" and not a solution for creativity. He notes that AI has impressive applications, but they are overshadowed by exaggerated claims. Kyratzes believes most AI is not truly artificial general intelligence but rather advanced versions of autocorrect.

He argues that the current discourse around AI uses the term too loosely, and that the technology is not as groundbreaking as some claim. Kyratzes' sister narrative designer Verena Kyratzes agrees, calling AI a "plagiarism machine" that could lead to job losses. She attributes job losses to labor issues rather than technology itself.

Kyratzes remains hopeful about AI, but acknowledges that the root of many problems lies in the weak power of labor compared to capital, rather than the technology itself.
