We have lost all sense of how to influence the world and all ability to gauge scale.
Absolutely correct!
I believe in "voting with your wallet" and I do little sacrifices to respect my ideas, but I'm conscious that I'm just one step above people clicking on petitions online in terms of impact.
Sure, why not?
Fast forward a couple of months:
you lost contacts with 95% of your contacts you used to hear through apps. Last time you met a group of friends was when you randomly met them in a restaurant having a dinner together. "We invited you but you didn't reply". The 5% still calling you wants your money.
your bank started charging an extra fee because you did not object when they notified a change in the contract via email. You missed a notification from the tax office and now you have to pay a small fine.
your car cannot circulate anymore because you live in Europe and cities may ban old polluting engines.
you read less because it started to be expensive to buy all those magazines. On the flip side you are more fit because you have to walk 2km to reach a place that sells them.
Ironically you just said that artists are wrong to be concerned.
maybe it’s cause the models are beginning to consume their own slop.
That's going to be a huge issue indeed because synthetic data contains bias and it's proven that produced biased models.
Absolutely correct.
One random example: where I work, CVs are being filtered by an AI before they are opened by a human reducing the volume to a 20% of potentially good candidates. In that 20% there is always someone to hire, so it doesn't matter if a good candidate is lost in the AI filter. Failing to optimize the CV for AI literally means being left behind.
Hive mind.
It is unimaginative
Can you make an example of something 100% original that was not inspired by anything that came before?
The short answer is copyright theft, energy consumption, and job displacement. While all those issues are 100% correct, there is also a huge unspoken factor of "you must be against it otherwise you are a brainwashed idiot" because, let's be honest, the hive mind is real.
Most of the modern no-AI luddites fail to understand that AI has been around for decades in various forms and this is just the last, most visible incarnation. It is here to stay, and it will grow as well. At this rate of adoption, in a few years it will be as normal as having a mobile phone (they weren't around only 20 years ago).
My humble prediction is that all the concerns around AI will be addressed with time by better hardware, better cooling mechanism, better energy production, different jobs that will leverage AI instead of competing with it, and surely also the copyright will find a new balance (just like MP3, Napster, and Spotify did not kill the music industry).
By the way, AI doesn't spy on you. An AI model is immutable once it's trained. The software using the model is spying on you, but that's true for any scumbag-driven software you use. It is essentially the same typing your secrets in Google Docs or in ChatGPT.
This is just great 👏
Isn't it wild how so many Americans do not understand how tariffs work?
.ml and shit talking communism.
Actually the worst appears to be hexbear that I blocked entirely.
Quite frankly I don't care much. I actually enjoy being exposed to different views, and I can ignore extremism quite easily.
Wow, your arguments are so solid! I'm totally convinced!
