@davidgerard that's one of the things that pisses me off about the "AI Revolution."
I genuinely believe that AI and LLMs are powerful tools that could be used to better humanity. Already there's some incredible work being done in the Cybersecurity arena with AI, for example.
But all of the worst people, with the worst agendas, have been handed the reigns. So now this thing that could have been such a boon is being turned into the money machine that runs on orphan blood and I hate it.
@DemonHouser @davidgerard this. There are some AI based tools which as far as I know, ripped off no-one and didn't burn down parts of the rainforest to get there.
But the majority sucks major balls, especially genAI. There's no reason to make generic shitty looking plagiarised work from a computer LLM that's designing by committee?
Cue that old post about wanting AI to do their washing up and taxes not film and TV shows.
I do feel the tide has mostly turned, I think the shine is off AI in the public's eyes...there hasn't been an 'Avatar/Titanic' to sell it, and I think the bubble will burst shortly.
AI bros are pissing in the wind (maybe cos it's filtered out by AI? LOL)
