We are in the age of AI, why not just accept it? Are people threatened by this? Are they disgusted? This is the start of my research. I have learned to use AI in a way that makes my life easier. So why so much hate against it? Are they jealous? Please debate but don’t argue in the comments. I want a civil debate. Intelligible answers only.

      This only points to a possibility that people are threatened by the use of AI. I’ve read this article before. It doesn’t explain everything I need to know about this.

    We didn’t need to force the wheel or the internet down everybody’s throats. We just converted to a society using wheels. So why the fuck is AI so “useful and necessary” while simultaneously being forced down our throats? When has a great invention that ever changed our entire society ever needed to be forced?

      Who is forcing it? Could you provide an example? Are you referring to the fact that it is now integrated into nearly everything: social media, applications, websites etc. or are you implying that people are just telling everyone if they don’t use AI they are wasting their time? How is it being forced because the last time I checked I had a choice whether to use it?

    This should be a poll. Why do you hate “AI”?

    • The sheer volume of hype it gets is horrifying and everyone needs to stop talking about it
    • It’s a trillion dollars of wasted investment capital that is going to wreck the financial markets
    • Its main use is generating bullshit and we already have enough of that
    • All the talk about the dangers of AI superintelligence is insulting to real intelligence
    • Slop is no substitute for thought and it’s drowning out real culture
    • All the fucking bots are making life hard for web server admins for no good reason
    • The amount of energy it wastes is unconscionable
    • Almost every use of it seems to be a misuse of it
    • It’s too expensive to be worthwhile
    • It’d have to get a lot more expensive if the people selling it were ever going to stop losing money
    • The more people rely on it the worse it makes everything
    • Nobody has the slightest idea how they could ever make it trustworthy
    • Its output is often wrong in subtle ways that are hard to detect
    • People have a tendency to imagine intelligence where it isn’t there, causing psychological harm
    • Nobody can afford dram any more
    • That you found something it seems useful for is outweighed by all of the above

      Some of these points are super weird. Like this for example. What does this even mean?

      All the talk about the dangers of AI superintelligence is insulting to real intelligence

      Who is this “real intelligence” who’s offended by people talking about a hypotethical thing that’s even more intelligent?
