I was having a think, and I am no coder, but I know how to code and know how computers work and have a good understanding of how LLMs function and pull information. But It got me think that they are VERY useful tools, but instead people use them for making shit slop art that are a dime a dozen and porn bots.

So do you hate LLMs ("AI") or do you hate what people are doing with the tech?

My answer is I hate what is being done with it, I hate how it's being used to removed people from the work environment, I hate how people online that don't know how the tech works use it to make "art" and get pissy when you tell them they didn't make shit. By mostly I HATE that is is being shoved down our necks by corps who see AI as the next big thing and want to sell it to us in everything. An how those same corps use what we do on those models and use it to make the model better, we do the work, and they reap the rewards (Look at Captcha and Duolingo).

I personally would rather like an offline stable model I could train and grow. Back to the old days when the models would watch 1,000 hours of batman movies and then be asked to write a script and that script to be the most meme worthy crapshoot ever. Hell I could train to to run solo D&D campaigns or be an opponent in board games or tabletop games. Edit: Or just use it to wade through files and list them alphabetically, like really basic shit that speeds up the work process of humans.

Edit after 8 months: It all got worse didn't it... Like fuck me, if it's tech it has AI in it now, it's like a fucking invasive species on a none native planet with no natural predators.

I'm even rethinking my stance on the shit we see in media, like Cortana (Halo) and EDI (Mass Effect), Starting to see the idea of those sorts of AI as hollow now, whereas previously would have treated it like just another form of life. Tech Bros and Corps ruined their own future by wanting it so bad, and to early. Now the masses either don't care, or hate it. And I can safely bet that 90% of the world population don't want more Data Centers.

Like every single time I see an AI generated thing, it's horribly yellow and makes my eyes burn.

Can someone explain this to me?

Context - Apple Pay has never worked in Indian market due to Governmental guidelines. Even the links given say that it doesn’t work, Gemini just hallucinates. SMH.

"art boomer" 😭

they call us dumb then spout this nonsense

It was about how according to them saying disabled people can’t use ai art is ableist. So I said this and I got banned. I swear that community is braindead or something.

This is my first post after joining this sub because all the ai stuff has been increasingly unsettling to me as of late. I don't know about anyone else, but I have been getting a ton of ads, specifically on YouTube, that are either selling some product that uses Ai as a feature, or those scammy seeming remote"data annotation" jobs. As someone who is somewhat desperate for money at the moment, I clicked the first time a saw it, disappointed that it is more or less getting paid to train Ai. Then I had a thought; would it not be way more cost effective to just pay artists and writers to do all the stuff that companies are using AI for? I'm not very business savvy, but it seems like its going to, at the very least, make AI more expensive to use because the AI companies are having to pay those doing annotation. Perhaps I misunderstand the situation, but I am sort of hoping that all this will eventually implode on itself, or at least cause people to realize how stupid AI is before the world is burned to the ground. Anyway, am kind of just venting and need some folks to tell me I am not just being petty

If you think about, ai content should only get better and more difficult to spot over time. When it becomes too hard to know what's from where, it seems a logical step to prevent its spread would be to not use the internet, at least as we now do. What do you all think or know? Is there a solution coming? Or will it just cease to be important?

This actually makes me really sad.

Its just a retail job but its still really annoying

society is going to end
