A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I have realized a lot of posts on here mostly criticizing the data collection of people to train A.I, but I don't think A.I upon itself is bad, because A.I- like software development- has many ways of implementations: Software can either control the user, or the user can control the software, and also like software development, some software might be for negative purposes while others may be for better purposes, so saying "Fuck Software" just because of software that controls the user feels pretty unfair, and I know A.I might be used for replacing jobs, but that has happened many times before, and it is mostly a positive move forward like with the internet. Now, I'm not trying to start a big ass debate on how A.I = Good, because as mentioned before, I believe that A.I is as good as its uses are. All I want to know from this post is why you hate A.I as a general topic. I'm currently writing a research paper on this topic, so I would like some opinion.

The only useful "AI" ever created is the one used in health applications to recognize certain patterns like cancer or organs. And it's only used to help doctors, it's not making decisions because it's not reliable. It's a quick sorting machine. But it's not a LLM at all.

And as others said: students were lazy but they had to work to learn something, now anyone can cheat at home and it will create an idiocracy in the next decades (and it already does with a few people around me, it's not a fantasy).

Every other AI is bullshit. But it still makes me feel good because if OpenAI can pirate all the books, I can keep on torrenting for free without feeling any guilt. Thanks ChatGPT!
