This is extreme

I'd say this is also a bit about extremism. I mean it's not wrong to be entirely against AI. I don't think I am. For example if we managed to do it ethically, I wouldn't have much of an issue with assistance systems in cars, smart home voice assistants and machine translation. I'm more opposed the more it gets towards generative AI. And because we do it the opposite of ethical in practice. I'm not necessarily opposed because of the thing itself or towards the science behind it, but because of all the bad consequences it comes with. But people like me aren't allowed a more nuanced opinion or to draw the line somewhere unless it's a perfect 0% or 100% and I feel people expect me to take some super extreme position. I still consider myself part of the anti-AI community overall, but both sides frequently misunderstand me. So I'm still subscribed to your posts and put up with the personal hate.

(Edit: Of course the take in the screenshot is stupid, though. There are a lot of compelling arguments against AI. And whether it fixes your bike or computer code isn't a matter of opinion, and it might benefit someone but that has nothing to do with justifying cost and side-effects of AI on other people.)

It's basically "I have no creative talent or skill so I'll use this because it'll teach those artists a lesson for acting so superior." It's a completely delusional disconnect with the reality of being an actually creative person in any way. Especially one when it comes to creatives trying to earn a living while must people just want their shit for free. Go harass billionaires for their shit and leave there starving artists alone.
