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.

If we're all in agreement about AI being problematic, wouldn't it make much more sense to unite us against it, than to divide us over the reasons why we don't like it? You could have simply said, "You know what else sucks about AI?" then listed your additional reasons.
There will always be people out there who don't know things that you know. When you ditch the insults and approach knowledge gaps as opportunities to educate, you'll get a lot more people on your side.
I say this as a supporter, a teammate, a fellow angry autist that sees many diverse reasons to be against the widespread use of AI. You make good points that I haven't seen raised here before, but I'm disheartened that you chose to present it in such a hostile, divisive way. In-fighting only hurts our side; it makes more sense to aim our anger at the target we can all agree on - AI itself.
No
I will not lend my effort to pursuing stupid and meaningless goals when it is literally our free will and self-governance that's on the fucking line
No one here really understands how quickly it will get so very, very bad.
There are so many reasons the AI art debacle is a non-issue and no one here will ever take the time to listen why. You are all just screaming about the color of the grass when a fucking tsunami is cresting the shore RIGHT THE FUCK NOW
