This should be a poll. Why do you hate "AI"?

  • The sheer volume of hype it gets is horrifying and everyone needs to stop talking about it
  • It's a trillion dollars of wasted investment capital that is going to wreck the financial markets
  • Its main use is generating bullshit and we already have enough of that
  • All the talk about the dangers of AI superintelligence is insulting to real intelligence
  • Slop is no substitute for thought and it's drowning out real culture
  • All the fucking bots are making life hard for web server admins for no good reason
  • The amount of energy it wastes is unconscionable
  • Almost every use of it seems to be a misuse of it
  • It's too expensive to be worthwhile
  • It'd have to get a lot more expensive if the people selling it were ever going to stop losing money
  • The more people rely on it the worse it makes everything
  • Nobody has the slightest idea how they could ever make it trustworthy
  • Its output is often wrong in subtle ways that are hard to detect
  • People have a tendency to imagine intelligence where it isn't there, causing psychological harm
  • Nobody can afford dram any more
  • That you found something it seems useful for is outweighed by all of the above

    Some of these points are super weird. Like this for example. What does this even mean?

    All the talk about the dangers of AI superintelligence is insulting to real intelligence

    Who is this "real intelligence" who's offended by people talking about a hypotethical thing that's even more intelligent?

    The offensively stupid part is where they pretend it's not a hypothetical thing that might some day exist after a series of unprecedented breakthroughs that there's no sign of yet, but something that might be here any day now if it's not already upon us.

    These are weak points to me. I could care less about more than half of these. The only one I am concerned now about is the psychological one. That you have made a good point. Though, trying hard in workplaces is now almost effortless for me, my brain might eventually stop working as hard and that is a good point. Thao makes me want to use AI less at work knowing that my mind isn't really being exercised ass much. You could have really had a good debate about that but the others are flumadiddle to me so I won't debate them.

    Are you an LLM? Or just a troll? That's another problem with "AI" — it's hard to tell, these days.

    Neither. I just don't care for the other points you have made. I validate that they are points but they are not something I value. No I don't insult you. I asked for a civil debate. But you seems to gloss over that and call me a troll or an LLM lol .when someone loses a debate they result to name calling. As you have done.
