Technical papers and models aside, this year marked a turning point in commercialisation and public access. The ease of access and quality also prompted some vigorous public debate about the ethics of generative art, the meaning of an ‘ai artist’, and the occasional debate about the future of film cinema.

I also think the general public have been blown away with the capabilities across imaging, writing and code, and there’s probably a few sectors and industries will be having a very hard think about their next move in the coming months.
