Remember when the internet was treated like AI when it first dropped? People up in arms about internets influence on young people/kids.
This all seems really familiar.
Honestly low-key technophobia has always been a major sentiment in otherwise tech-focused parts of the internet and it has always fascinated me.
The new thing about this new technology is that it’s taking our jobs away without creating any new ones. I fear the day some stupid higher up decides that a chatbot can do a better job than me.
I mean they were right about the internet. The corporations turned most of it into a cluster of competing megamalls that make people anxious while selling them things.
Never mind that even just open a port 443 anywhere in the world will open you up to roving bands of OC scrapers, which feed the next evolution of corp power.
It's not like a bunch of basement nerds made LLMs and now corps are trying to muscle in (like with the internet). This new technology is theirs, from its R&D to now its aggressive rollout across all sectors of the Internet they control.
I don't have much hope for the commercial AI or LLM services that are available to most consumers. I think they're going to enshittify so bad that we're going to need a new word for it.
Arguably, they may have been right given the decade or so.
Nobody is going to libraries anymore, The internet is killing books and jobs 🤬
What kind of selfish, emotionless psychopath do you have to be to legitimately think that libraries being unused, forgotten, and closed is a good thing?
You ever thought about this: maybe if you visited your library in person more often, you'd actually have more friends.
I never said that.
All I'm saying is just because The Internet caused library use to plummet doesn't mean Internet = Bad.
It might. Like, maybe a little?
Oddly, you're the one kind of lacking nuance here. I'd be willing to oppose the Internet in certain contexts. It certainly feels less and less useful as it's consumed by AI spam anyway.
