A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I agree with the first part, but I think the second part is unsubstantiated.

I don't think it is - but there are no studies to confirm that either afaik.

I agree with you. I don't think it's failure so much as this unwillingness to accept I can't do something. We have generations of people who want it and want it now, and AI scratches the itch in that regard. I say this as a millennial, I'm 37, and it's certainly true of my generation, and I find it to be true of all the generations after me.

I don't know if it's good or bad. I certainly know why I think it's bad, the whole delayed gratification, entitlement, etc., but I'm sure access to information, ability to express ideas, and whatnot, are good things too.

And I'll just indicate I have a personal anti-AI bias. Maybe I'm too lazy to use it, maybe I have some other rationale in my subconscious, but that's where I come from.
