The world would be better off without AI.

That's really the only point that matters to me. I don't really care if you think it 10x's your productivity. I have yet to see any argument or combination of arguments that remotely comes close to negating that statement. The world would simply be better off without AI.

Serious question. When is it AI or not?

My parents remember when typewriters switched to computers, and the howls.

I remember when spellcheck was "evil AI thats going to ruin everyone's ability to spell".

But seriously, even a PID loop has a training phase and an execution phase. Is a PID loop "evil AI"?

How many neurons make it "evil"?

@crankylinuxuser When spellcheck gets to the point where it uses an unfathomable and unsustainable amount of resources and spreads dangerous misinformation to millions of people in the blink of an eye while it makes a few antisocial techbros obscenely rich off other peoples' work, you can expect to see a very similar post from me about how the world would be better off without it.

Sure the whole techbro bullshit is true if you only look at for-pay models in the USA.

China is doing hell of good models, and truly open source to boot. I'm even running 3 models on my local hardware. No watercooling, and run by about 80% solar right now.

But I'm also serious - how many neurons count before its evil?

A PID loop is 3 neurons in 1 layer. Demonstrably is trained, and the training data is used to execute afterwards. My FDM printer uses multiple PID loops. Is that AI? Does that deserve hatred?
