Do you really need to have a list of why people are sick of LLM and Ai slop?

We don't need a collection of random 'AI bad' articles because your entire premise is flawed.

In general, people are not 'sick of LLM and Ai slop'. Real people, who are not chronically online, have fairly positive views of AI and public sentiment about AI is actually becoming more positive over time.

Here is Stanford's report on the public opinion regarding AI (https://hai.stanford.edu/ai-index/2024-ai-index-report/public-opinion).

Stop being a corporate apologist and stop wreaking the environment with this shit technology.

My dude, it sounds like you need to go out into the environment a bit more.

Gish gallop

Are being used to push fascist ideologies into every aspect of the internet:

Everything can be used for that. If anything, I believe AI models are too restricted and tend not to argue on controversial subjects, which prevents you from learning anything. Censorship sucks

They are a massive privacy risk:

I do agree on this, but at this point everyone uses instagram, snapchat, discord and whatever to share their DMs which are probably being sniffed by the NSA and used by companies for profiling. People are never going to change.

Ai is literally making people dumber: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/lee_2025_ai_critical_thinking_survey.pdf

We surveyed 319 knowledge workers who use GenAI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot) at work at least once per week, to model how they enact critical thinking when using GenAI tools, and how GenAI affects their perceived effort of thinking critically. Analysing 936 real-world GenAI tool use examples our participants shared, we find that knowledge workers engage in critical thinking primarily to ensure the quality of their work, e.g. by verifying outputs against external sources. Moreover, while GenAI can improve worker efficiency, it can inhibit critical engagement with work and can potentially lead to long-term overreliance on the tool and diminished skill for independent problem-solving. Higher confidence in GenAI’s ability to perform a task is related to less critical thinking effort. When using GenAI tools, the effort invested in critical thinking shifts from information gathering to information verification; from problem-solving to AI response integration; and from task execution to task stewardship. Knowledge workers face new challenges in critical thinking as they incorporate GenAI into their knowledge workflows. To that end, our work suggests that GenAI tools need to be designed to support knowledge workers’ critical thinking by addressing their awareness, motivation, and ability barriers.

I would not say "can potentially lead to long-term overreliance on the tool and diminished skill for independent problem-solving" equals to "literally making people dumber". A sample size of 319 isn't really representative anyways, and they mainly had a sample of a specific type of people. People switch from searching to verifying, which doesn't sound too bad if done correctly. They associate critical thinking with verifying everything ("Higher confidence in GenAI’s ability to perform a task is related to less critical thinking effort"), not sure I agree on this.

This study is also only aimed at people working instead of regular use. I personally discovered so many things with GenAI, and know to always question what the model says when it comes to specific topics or questions, because they tend to hallucinate. You could also say internet made people dumber, but those who know how to use it will be smarter.

They had to write an essay in 20 minutes... obviously most people would just generate the whole thing and fix little problems here and there, but if you have to think less because you're just fixing stuff instead on inventing.. well yea, you use your brain less. Doesn't make you dumb? It's a bit like saying paying by card makes you dumber because you use less of your brain compared to paying in cash because you have to count how much you need to give, and how much you need to get back.

Yes, if you get helped by a tool or someone, it will be less intensive for your brain. Who would have thought?!

Ai is literally making people dumber:

And books destroyed everyone's memory. People used to have fantastic memories.

They are a massive privacy risk:

No different than the rest of cloud tech. Run your AI local like your other self hosting.

Are being used to push fascist ideologies into every aspect of the internet:

Hitler used radio to push fascism into every home. It's not the medium, it's the message.

And they are a massive environmental disaster:

AI uses a GPU just like gaming uses a GPU. Building a new AI model uses the same energy that Rockstar spent developing GTA5. But it's easier to point at a centralized data center polluting the environment than thousands of game developers spread across multiple offices creating even more pollution.

Stop being a corporate apologist

Run your own AI! Complaining about "corporate AI" is like complaining about corporate email. Host it yourself.

Lol I didn't know that the anarchists over at lemmy.dbzer0.com are being corporate apologists. /sarcasm
