I didn't realize Lemmy hated AI so much. Pretty much every post in this thread is bashing the idea. I've found AI to be very useful personally, I use it almost every day. It helped me code a VBA macro from scratch with 0 experience. This tool is saving me and my team hundreds of hours per year. It's also great just as an improved search engine.

AI is useful, we're just tired of seeing it stuffed everywhere

I think the focus is more on how it's the new buzzword that companies are chasing and that most have a solution looking for a problem.

I like how Kagis search AI works. It gives a link to all of the sources it scraped from.

Especially since AI is already in Firefox, the offline translation feature uses local NMT models.
