The word slop will likely undergo a transformation (lemmy.world)

AI is here to stay. There will most likley be some crash in the near future, but Pandaora is let the evil out of her the box and AI will remain part of our reality in some shape or form.

The way language goes i personally expect the word "slop" to change into a neutral term, maybe as a way to describe that something is using AI, but without the negative connotation the word carries today. I can imagine this to happen within the next five to ten years. There may very much be a Windows 12 add that empasizes how much slop they used to make it.

(edit: stupid writing mistakes)

Do i understand you correct that you expect humanity to at one point no longer use machine learning and/or generative models?

Because I'd be honestly interested in the train of thought leading to that - I can't imagine it.

The corporate machine drying up, sure - but removing use? No idea.

    I don't understand what you're saying but: AI is not here to stay, it's not inevitable, and should be avoided by most people because it makes them stupid.

    My question is: "how?"

    I can't imagine a path where what you're calling "AI" (fixing marketing term) will disappear again.

    "Inevitable" is a weird term die me - it's here. Someone must happen for it to disappear again.

    Perhaps you're thinking of specific user groups? ( "Makes most people stupid" for example is something I fully get. Just like Facebook though and that never went away either :( )

    When they say "AI is here to stay" they mean "you cannot avoid it" (aka FOMO, the same propaganda they used for bitcoins and NFTs, see how quickly they all switched to AI?) which is wrong because I have been avoiding it easily since the beginning.

    Yes it is technically here to stay like a cancer, it doesn't mean I have to suffer.

    No idea how "they" use this. But i mean it much in the way Scipitie here has correctly understood it. AI is here. We don't have to like it, personally i use zero AI in my live. But the technology has it's foothold widh the masses by now. I don't see how it would ever go away again. It will transform, post crash and all, but it won't go away.

    You couldn't have underlined the top level guy's comment any better than this.

    Haha a LLM wouldn't have made these mistakes though. I will rather make my mistakes than delegate communicating with people to my machine, let alone someone else's.

    Thanks for calling it out, will fix!

    Edit: it's hilarious though that you take a non LLM users error as proof that LLMs will go away because their users get dumber. I should be your proof that at least my writing should be replaced by a machine, no?

    Just blame autocorrect, it's probably accurately at fault anyway.

    Also though, llms and ml aren't "ai" any more than a bolt is your car.

    edit: you also missed a grammar mistake in the other comment
