I just wanna say that while I agree with the sentiment of the post, AI has nothing to do with this.

We've had dishwashers and laundry machines that are super efficient and effective for many years. A lot of those chores are being done for you by automation.

LLMs have much fewer practical applications

Are you talking about AI in general or only generative A'I'? Because as far as I know, a, say, robot maid (of sorts) that would load and empty your dishwasher/washing machine, organise stuff, clean, whatever other domestic labor most people don't like, could be considered AI, just used for different purposes.

I mean the AI that grifters currently push. Not the slippery slope definition of "is a lightbulb AI" :D

She is aware that dishwashers and laundry machines exist. She's saying that she wants AI to do her dishes and laundry tasks, the same as she does when she's using those machines. The entire process.

Yep.

"But we already have dishwashers and washing machines"

No shit, but for some reason when I put my dirty clothes in the laundry basket they don't show up folded in my drawers without me, ya know...doing the laundry.

But like, that's only further automation, not "AI" and certainly not AI in its current form.

Maybe it's pedantry but like it's got nothing to do with machine learning. I want it too, but not with the grifters pushing AI lol

They do have humanoid robots that are starting to do this. But it's still in training, mostly done by remote operators except for easier tasks that have already been trained.

The point of note, is that if we didn't have so many freeloaders, rich or middling do nothing jobs, we would have plenty more time to explore our passions.

[–] frank@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

Totally! And I agree with that.

I just don't subscribe to the grifters pushing AI on us.

A lot of terms are starting to blend... Now anything that does work a human could also do is AI / robots / automation / machine learning.
