I'm really wondering: Guys, what's going on? This blanket aversion to anything with AI on it is almost religious and reminds me of the "mobile phone rays" opponents. Man, I'm really not a fan of this hype either, but calm down.

And blocking people who use AI-generated images across the board, well... I don't get it.

@phranck It’s about anshittification. AI rarely ever adds useful features that could not be added better without AI. But it’s a) a hype to add AI b) faster. It’s the tale of “good enough”.

If anyone without technical inside asks me what I think about AI, what I tell them is: “It’s great if it does not matter whether the result is correct. Want a artsy image? Great use case! Want to know the size of a screw? Nope, use calipers. The output of an AI should ALWAYS be assumed to be wrong.”

@teilweise Yap, that would be my answer too - today. But the development is progressing, that WILL change!

@phranck Yeah, that’s what our professors told us.
I studied computer sciences in the previous century.

Technology evolved faster than you think,
but way slower than you expect.

@teilweise me too 😃
