I don’t think it’s just you. Like it wasn’t just one person thinking computers would make us dumb or the automobile making us lazy. I’m betting that someone somewhere thought that cooking food on the fire would make us weaker.
Technology has that ability to generate opposition from status quo.
And as with any technology, there are good uses, bad uses and frivolous uses.
Remember the awful nonsense web pages of the early 90’s?
I think AI will make the life’s of some of us easier. But I also think it will continue widening the digital divide.
The biggest concern is that, by nature, AI needs massive amounts of power which can only be paid by people with big resources and those people are training it. AI has the trainer’s bias.
However, end consumer AI is the tip of the iceberg. AI will succeed when we don’t even realize it’s there.
Good points, but I think the anti-AI position is not an anti-technology position.
I think the people assuming it is are naïve. It’s an anti-hype position. We’ve seen bullshit waves before, but nothing like this tsunami. When previous bullshit waves broke, there wasn’t so much destruction we couldn’t recover.
