It's crazy to watch the insane level of outrage that the existence and growth of AI produced content stirs up in some people when it seems obvious that the development of AI is unstoppable. It's like watching people get angry at the first steam engines that appeared. I genuinely worry about their mental health over the next few years as they realise that being angry on the internet isn't going to slow anything down at all.
It’s amazing to watch people like you not get the point at all. It’s like you’re missing some piece of yourself and cannot understand why people appreciate the humanity behind art. And to act like we should just lie down and take it?
I’m sorry for whatever the fuck happened to you.
So, genuine question.
What do you propose should happen with the advances of AI?
It doesn't matter what I (or anyone) "proposes". You may as well be asking me what I propose to do about the orbit of Jupiter. Arguing about it on the Internet is especially pointless. It's the new "Old man shouts at clouds" basically...
I wasn't asking you because you know it is inevitable.
I was asking the other user because I do not see what can be done against this genie that is out of the bottle. Just abandoning is never going to happen and regulating isn't going to fix all the qualms they have with it.
Why did you join a discussion space if you don’t like discussing?
The way I see it, my comments have prompted an enormous amount of discussion. The most interesting comment, I think, was from PixelProf when they said "Lots of students arbitrarily hating anything AI related". It's this blind, herd mentality that I attempted (apparently successfully) to start a discussion about. In fact a lot of what I wrote was driven by the point you were making, which I interpreted as being a funny take on the way people react to AI generated content.
