What is discussed in this thread are LLMs, which are a subgroup of AI. What you are referring to, is image recognition, and there are plenty of examples where their use is not evil, e.g. in the medical field.
I have a few friends who work have started calling their field “data analysis with computers”, because “AI” and “Machine Learning” sounds like “prompt engineer” nowadays.
AI as a concept has many uses that are beneficial!
The beneficial uses are non-profit seeking uses, which are not the ones seen jammed into everything. Pattern matching is extremely helpful for science, engineering , music, and a ton of other specific purposes in controlled settings.
LLMs/chat bots implemented by profit seeking companies and vomited upon the masses have only evil purposes though.
Sorry to break it to you, but AI does have uses, it’s just they are all evil.
Imagine things like identifying (with low accuracy) enemies from civilians in a war zone.

Yeah exactly, ML is very powerful and can be very useful in niche areas.
LLMs have tainted good AI progress cause it made line go up.

That’s so sad
