I refuse to use it because it's shit.
We are not the same.
Yup, these things are still garbage for >90% of all applications people are jamming them into. Breathed a sigh of relief when my company CEO said he doesn't see us using AI for more than can center routing for at least the next several years.
Works relatively well for image editing
Else yea I would agree, sometimes it's just shoved for nothing, but 90% seems like too much
Don't misunderstand, LLM's are fantastic for certain applications and it makes sense to use them. But seriously GTFO my email and search results. Generated speech? Ew. Generated videos? Nah. Ordering for me at a restaurant? Just kill me.
Brave's AI search results are pretty good
I don’t dislike AI generated videos as long as they are funny with some meta (making fun of the absurdity of what characters do for example - the brainrot potential is unlimited)
Every last bit of it? What is your stance on use of AI for tasks such as data analysis of massive sets for scientific research, or procedural automation of massive operations?
AI doesn't exist, machine learning algorithms can be useful and are used with no controversy, generative bullshit is basically useless.
You're using a lot of very loosely defined terms with a lot of certainty. Machine learning is AI, we just usually apply it to the more simple versions of it. Where do you personally draw the line? I fully understand the plethora of risks, downsides, and injustices that can potentially be involved in the matter, but I legitimately don't understand the extremist level hatred that some people express to anything that could hold the title of AI. To me, it parallels with someone saying that they hate ionizing radiation. Frequently, it's also bad, and your entirely reasonable to try and avoid it on a daily basis, but it also has many uses that are beneficial and life-saving.
Don't try to argue with the lemmy anti-AI crowd, it's not worth it.
Same thinking as people who hate crypto for a part of it
They just sound completely dumb, yet it's the majority of people here
For a place that welcomes people, inclusivity and hate discrimination, there's a lot of generalization
That's... not how it works. ML is AI also..
Don't talk about things you don't understand, please, to avoid misinforming other
Yes, I am also frequently accosted by Google's data analysis of massive sets for scientific research. I can't tell you how many times they've forcefully inserted research analysis of large data sets into my search results.
What?
*because you don't know how to use it
