plus there is absolutely no way of knowing how many of the pro-AI voices are even real people

the hysteria is taking on a new life of its own and i guess it makes sense considering how people’s materials conditions are being diminished on our education system as well as our media doesn’t enable us to understand why or how.

Ridiculous anti-AI hysteria is pushed by the AI companies themselves to make the anti-AI side look insane.

And to weaken the FOSS communities I guess. Plain information warfare.

I mean, I’m not sure the hysteria is completely unreasonable. AI does pose multiple legitimate threats and should be used responsibly, and not trusted with certain duties. We’ve also seen that the powers that be treat the world around them like a fratboy treats a drunken co-ed (it’s meant to be disgusting), and that the constant growth demanded by the shareholders leaves no room for ethics, morals, or big-picture thinking.

I use AI. I also built my own for simple tasks. I’ve had a lot of experiences with AI at this point, and its generous to say the pros-cons are a wash. The use-cases I and most normies see is AI expediting an already blazing fast enshitification of everything around us.
