I think i may need a break from mastodon.

it is not an exaggeration to say that the majority of my feed is now just various anti-AI posts.

the people pushing AI aren't here. they are not on your Mastodon instance. When you post about how terrible and ignorant and stupid they are they do not see it, and it's not like that sort of thing persuades anyone even if they did.

I want to keep up with the cool stuff you are all making and doing. But I realize I am not entitled to just pick and choose from the things you find important enough to share, so I am not sure what else to do when I find that reading my feed no longer improves my mental health.

@Photo55 A few people have pointed this out and I'm reading up on the filtering function now. My main concern is that a two letter term might be an overly broad thing to filter, but I can give it a shot.

@gloriouscow 4 character. Space AI space will get many, and few false positives.
AGI tends to be more interesting posts but you could catch that. SpaceAIfullstop is another term.

@Photo55 I'll miss the posts about video game AI but I have to wonder if people talking about unit pathfinding and such aren't desperately avoiding that term anyway now
