MODERATORS
Machine learning in medicine and healthcare has been around for decades, and has basically nothing to do with the LLM and image generation garbage that has now colloquially become known as "AI".
Half the problem with "AI hate" is how goddamned nebulous of a term it's become. When people say they hate AI, they're almost certainly talking about specifically all the new generative commercialized stuff from just the past few years, but so many people hear that and assume something a LOT broader.
Most of the time they're not even talking about AI, they're instead talking about ancillaries like data centers, but they can't fathom the distinction.
Hmmmm I wonder what all these data centers are being used for.
Yeah, and authors are to blame for trees being cut down. It doesn't matter that books don't necessarily need to be printed on paper, it's a clear line from authors writing to trees being cut down, so we should all hate authors.
Right?
