I don't hate AI itself, but the amount of AI slop ruining the internet gives me a negative feeling about it whenever I see it. I used to enjoy fucking around with the early pre-2021 GANs, diffusion models and GPT3 playground before ChatGPT was around and actually liked the crazy dreamlike nonsense they made, but now it all feels like dead soulless crap getting used to replace humans. Probably going to get super downvoted for admitting to ever liking AI image gens lmao

I’m a musician, and I like to write. I hate it. My husband uses it to help him code (I think; I have zero functional knowledge of his industry) and says it can be used in that capacity in certain ways.

The number of times I’ve heard peers say “I put this into chat gpt and it said…” makes me want to throw up. We think disinformation is bad now? We have no idea what’s coming.

The amount of people who use chatgpt like google is crazy, maybe it's because I was there before the "chat" phase of LLMs, but I can't imagine taking the output of a statistical prediction model as fact

Using google is now like using ChatGPT, FYI.

oh boy, that is awful. I've not used actual google for a while, I suppose I should have said "search engine" instead

It’s pretty garbage. I don’t trust the AI summary whatsoever. Just today I was trying to find out more information about something in a YouTube video, and it tried to tell me that no such thing existed when that’s what the YouTube video was literally documenting.

I know I need to de-google my life but I also know that it will take work and, well, inertia.

Google is full of SOE slop. I think I prefer AI slop.
