A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
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
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.
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.
Yeah.
I really like how Claude emulates specific writing styles so you can troll the living fuck out of some obnoxious self-serious writers in their circle-jerk chats. you drop some flowery shitball in there and they bukkake all over it and never once anyone ever suspected that this thing was AI generated. However, anytime I drop something actually written by humans just slightly out of style for that kind of crowd - they go pitchforks and boiling pitch on it calling it AI slop Antichrist Devil even though it is just something they simply don't like or understand.
Ah yes give AI access to the physical world.
What could possibly go wrong?
so true. although i shouldn't complain too much because i don't even have a dishwasher i can use and when i find a place it most likely won't have a dishwasher either. And alot of rental units do not like you using those "countertop" dishwashers because of some plumbing issues it can cause.
I really like doing laundry and dishes tho
I always felt that there's something deeply broken about people who enjoy doing dishes
Actually, I get it - there's a kind of humility in doing your own dishes, cleaning up after yourself.
For me at least, now that I get that, I can stay humble without actually doing the work, haha
Well that's... quite hurtful
I enjoy the feeling of the chore being done. You have to do the chore for it to be done, though. Kind of shitty but it is what it is.
Yah, cool. Keep doing them. I would rather hand those tasks over though.
Do you actually enjoy it or just the chance to do something different than you usually do?
I do all the dishes in my house and almost all of the laundry. Folding towels is my favorite part.
I personally don't want it to do anything for me if possible, chore wise. When it comes to dishes, I am particular on where certain items go in the dishwasher and where they get put away. I trust absolutely nobody to do dishes but me. I also don't trust anyone to do my laundry either. Especially not a clanker.
Good news! The existence of AI does literally nothing to stop you from pursuing any kind of creative activity!
Fun fact: I experimented with an LLM for creative writing and it was so shit it inspired me to resume work on some half baked story ideas. This year I resolved to take up drawing again and get better at it.
That's cool and all, but I still have to do my dishes and laundry before I have time to get to that.
I've been waiting for my AI butler since the first time I watched the Jetsons, instead I get AI slop.
Technology means the time you spend doing laundry and dishes is likely a tenth of what it was 100 years ago.
The reason AI, specifically, can do images and language but not load the dishwasher and washing machine is because those latter tasks are far harder and have worse consequences if you do them wrong. If the AI fucks up creating an image, so what? You tell it to make a new one. If it gets them all wrong then so what? You give up on it. If the AI robot fucks up loading the dishwasher, it breaks all your plates and then the dishwasher. If the AI robot fucks up doing the laundry, it tears all your shirts in half and smashes the washing machine.
