Thanks for providing an example
So sorry for criticizing AI for very serious problems that will affect me in my lifetime along with everyone I care about. What a piece of shit I am, please forgive me! AI is totally great and has no problems at all!
That's not what the post is about? How do you know I don't agree with you? This post is about people, not AI.
AI only exacerbates an existing problem with tech; AI datacenters pollute and consume because datacenters pollute and consume
a lot of things many people do online, including watching videos or playing online games, are super polluting. yet no one talks about this
you don’t care about the environment, you care about AI
Wildly presumptive and incorrect statement about me, but you are right about data centers.
On that note, it's worth pointing out that some fediverse instances are powered by renewables! It's small compared to the Internet at large, but it's a start.
Yesterday I saw a guy attacked on fuck_ai because he wasn't extreme enough with his anti ai attitude.
I commented to him, only said I thought that his comment was valid and got promptly deleted.
Yeah, the church of anti-AI is loud, obnoxious, and obstinate.
[slopping intensifies]
People hyping "AI" are the ones that seem like cultists to me. It's not even artificial intelligence, they're misusing the term to make money. They rebadged LLM.
There are extremist on both sides. But at least the anti-AI group has environmental responsibility on their side.
Environmental responsibility? That's the only real argument they have and even that is on shaky ground.
I mean, I don’t believe copyright should even exist. But if that’s true, then companies likewise need to release all their models freely to the public, which they won’t.
“Copyright for me, not for thee” seems to be the mantra.
See! Immediate attack on me. You don't know anything about be and what I believe.
More attacks, more insults.
You are adamant to continue proving my point.
Go on. Show everyone how obnoxious you are.
Ah, no more childish insults? You finally looked at the mirror. Good on you.
Take care. Bye.
I have never seen anyone other than tech bros hype AI. Quite the opposite, I only see people raging on AI.
Gee do you think maybe there's some good fuckin reasons for that
I guess I should make some sort of clever comment about a mirror here but it looks like I've run out of shits to give. Good chat!
Me too. Especially here in Lemmy. Definitely way more people rage about it. Rarely I see people being obnoxious by promoting it.
I beg to differ. Anti ai is way bigger on Lemmy than pro. You can see this even by the likes.
Second part is about semantics of ai. We use the term AI because that kind of stuck. Everybody uses the term. It makes no sense to every time rage about what it means specifically, especially since most people do fairly understand what it is.
No idea what you are talking about. The largest majority cals LLMs artificial intelligence. Because lnguistically, LLM is simply a subtyp of AI.
In public discourse and marketing, “AI” has become a blanket term for anything that learns and writes like a human, and LLMs fit the bill. So as a linguistic shortcut, when LLMs got popular, people replaced that specific kind of AI with just “AI. By definition, an LLM is a kind of AI, a specialized system trained on massive text to generate language, making it a clear hyponym of AI. That relationship justifies calling LLMs simply AI.
There is also because of generic reference: It's easier to say "I used AI" than to specify "I prompted a 175B‑parameter transformer model."
I sorry dude, but these are jusy linguistic mechanism at play. You can shout and complain so you want, it's AI. It's AI. Get over it, find a different hill to die on.
And there go the insults and attacks. Just what I was talking about in the beginning: anti ai people are way more extremist, way more obnoxious. You don't even know where I stand, for you it's enough to know I'm not 110% on your side and that's enough to attack.
Ah, more insults. You have bested me, sir. I can't compete with such rhetorical prowess. Bravo.
Goodbye.
I couldn't give a fuck less if you want to amuse yourself with scuffed images of anime girls with three tits and lobster claws. Knock yourself out.
But if you think people are going to sit politely while institutions inflict these bullshit techbro fidget spinners unto us at the cost of our humanity and the planet then you've lost the plot.
Is this the new sub tweeting? Whining in a shitpost sub about how you got modded for continuing to support a logical fallacy after the mod said knock it off?
It was not a logical fallacy to begin with and I only had one comment and it was only to the guy who was attacked, not to anyone else.
What do you care so much where I talk about how obnoxious fuck_ai has become? It's a stupid cult, that doesn't want any dissenting opinions and people are attacked for not being extreme enough. A sewer.
