    It’s a new tech in its infancy. is hacky Yes, it’s annoying. But the whole point of it is to make people who don’t know what they’re doing actually be more able to, you know, do things outside of their own capabilities. That is a huge improvement. Of course, you do have to have some common sense and some logic to work these tools better. To understand they are not perfect. to understand an AI can make mistakes. But I think overall people will be more productive with AI than without it.

    For the security part, I think this will improve over time. For the environment? I wouldn’t be so sure. Still, AI is not gonna go away. You gotta try and take its positives, Because if you don’t, people who use AI will just walk over you. I don’t even think it can work in tech anymore if you don’t use AI.

      Now that you mention it… this rat poison does have a pleasant cherry flavour

        Let’s assume rat poison does have a pleasant flavor (prob doesn’t)

        The comparison doesn’t work, as this rat poison only gives you a tiny sensory benefit before kiiling you, while AI can be used for a lot of good, be it in the medical field, as a better way to look up information online of any kind, a way for non techy people to interact with the internet in an easier way, to provide better voice to text for people with disabilities, basic tech support or help with quicker queries, to generate mockups with image gen etc etc etc

        Doesn’t seem to be the same category as “completely harmful but slightly pleasurable right before the end of it all”, and I haven’t googled, I’m sure a ton of other things would show up that are positives of AI as a technology
