Here here. This place doesn’t have much rational thoughts on AI.
I’m (a little) surprised how group think this place is on the topic - y’all are a serious echo chamber. This place is like rainbow flags and kill the bots central. Any pro AI counterpoint mentions bring pitch forks and hate. That’s not a good look.
Maybe I’m an AI bro myself, but I’m also an experienced professional using it to do real work (and no, not taking any jobs, building new tools for a team that needs them). Linus is a real expert. But why listen to experience and expertise when you have an opinion and feel justified. It’s ok to be afraid, but when scary change comes wise folks listen and learn.
Here we don’t worry about facts and reality, just get your outrage revved up. Social media is social media - and that’s scarier than AI, because it uses people to make the garbage.
I mean, yeah, most people here dislike/hate AI for diversity of reasons, most commonly for:
Taking up PC components that don’t even exist
Taking up green land
Pollute nearby areas with audible noise
Pirate and suck in all the human knowledge just to sell it back to you
Effectively DDoS-ing hundreds of thousands of websites and forcing them to implement captcha-like screening
Frying (even more) new generation’s attention spans and melt their ability to think by themselves
Ruining human interaction on the internet and filling it up with shit content
Corporates forcing AI on everything for the sake of having it
Threatening to take people’s jobs
And tbf, most of those issues come from brain-rot executives and corporates.
It’s okay if you like it and you find it helpful, it’s a tool after all. Like any other tool, on the right hands might boost productivity and help with repetitive tasks.
The main problem is that most people will think that you support any of the above downsides by liking it.
I’m a bit curious, would you share your pro AI counterpoints?
