I noticed almost everybody here agrees that all AI is bad, and anything produced by AI is slop. and refuse to use any software made in part or in whole with AI or help of AI? Please mention your background and usage of AI with your answer.

I also posted it here.

    It’s rarely the work that people strive deep meaning from that gets automated away or replaced with much more efficient tools. Does a combine harvester distance us from scything? I guess so but does anyone want to go back?

      Anyone that was against combine harvesters because they would lead to massive deforestation and environmental pollution would have been on the money, though. Modern agribusiness is a nightmare.

      Even with those problems, making more food inherently has more value than “I can spend less time on office emails”.

        Seems that anything has more value than spending time on office emails. If anything can be automated away, that should be the first thing to go.

          Oh damn now that you mention it I guess people that live near data centers do deserve to live in an environment full of pollution for that.

      No almost nobody would want to, and it probably wouldn’t be possible to do without starving a lot people. There still is an awful mostly hidden cost for the conveniences we receive from new technologies.
