My understanding is most of you are anti AI? My only question is…why? It is the coolest invention since the Internet and it is remarkable how close it can resemble actual consciousness. No joke the AI in sci fi movies is worse than what we actually have in many ways!

Don’t get me wrong, I am absolutely anti “AI baked into my operating system and cell phone so that it can monitor me and sell me crap”. If that’s what being Anti AI is…to that I say Amen.

But simply not liking a privacy conscious experience or utilization of AI at all? I’m not getting it?

    I think AI is cool, but how people use it can be problematic.

    1. Fraud. Its easy to over-represent the capabilities and sell a bullshit tool to people.

    2. Spyware. They require shedloads of data to train so AI companies are doing whatever they can to get data on people.

    3. Taking Jobs. This is an existential threat to entire professions.

    4. Spam. LLMs are a bullshit factory, so spamming and astroturfing are easier than ever.
