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.

Looks like HAL9000 we deserve, not the HAL9000 that we need...

This is the best take on the matter I've ever seen.

If AI does all the art and writing and doesn't use up all the fresh water, maybe we can make some kind of trade?

I get the sentiment, but generative AI isn't stopping anyone from making art. And you're going to have to dedicate the same amount of time to chores with or without it. :/

Yes , that is what "AI" is supposed to solve for humans. Not for us to rely on it for out own creativity.

Ironically, laundry and dishes are two of the best examples of tedious work that machines are already largely doing for us. Laundry in particular probably did more to free up her time for “art and writing” than almost anything else. AI will make both even better.

The complaint here is not that she will not have time for art and writing. Certainly it is not that she will have to spend MORE time doing laundry and dishes. The complaint is that fewer people will be willing to pay for her art and writing.

That is a very different complaint.

It is well written and does its job of misleading well. She may be quite a good author.
