I don't hate all AI, it certainly has its uses in selected applications when used correctly...
What I hate is the massive push from big tech to force it into every possible crevice regardless of suitability, the sheer amount of AI slop it's generating, the social media manipulation spinning it as a positive, the massive invasion of privacy they demand to use their services, the blatant copyright infringement underpinning it all, and the vast amounts of energy & resources it consumes.
People forget LLMs are just statistical models. They have no factual understanding on they're producing. So why should we be allowing it in an educational context?
Couldn't have put it better.
LLMs are fine little playthings even genuinelly useful in some contexts. The hype and grift around them, on the other hand, is toxic.
