'I think that right now, AI is kind of frightening, and does things in ways that are a little bit incorrect. But also we find it fascinating and kind of endearing, even in its mistakes,' textile artist Alex Woolner tells the Daily Beast.
Wertheim believes that AI like ChatGPT falters when designing crochet patterns because its outputs lack two factors she calls sense and sense-ability .
Sense-ability, on the other hand, is the knowledge that the pattern is meant to create a physical object. ChatGPT, however, creates instructions without knowing what the abbreviations stand for; it also has no concept of how the instructions will be used. Without sense and sense-ability, ChatGPT and its ilk can’t comprehend crochet. “I think it's going to be a long time before the AIs are going to be capable of producing something that is actually a useful, interesting crochet pattern because they just don't have a sense of the thing ultimately being an object in physical space,” said Wertheim.
Two weeks later, she followed up. “This is possibly the most frustrating one I have ever tried to complete,” she wrote in an email. ChatGPT’s instructions, formerly in crocheting shorthand, now described each stitch individually, making it difficult to keep one’s place in the pattern. Worse, the pattern stopped making sense—rows would call for more stitches than existed in the piece, and entire regions like the body and tail were never finished.
