A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

A big issue with AI is precisely how just a few people can inundate the rest of us with their mass-produced slurry of AI content.
Just like photography did once remove the painter from making a selfie 🤷🏼 The tools are not the problem, it’s the users that think they should put everything online as if it is a big achievement.
What is your genius solution to handle these naughty users, then?
If you fail to respond within 3 business days, we will continue with our plan to nuke OpenAI from orbit.
Where did I say I have a solution… I know at least one thing, and that is that blaming AI for this definitely wont solve anything.
But removing AI would solve something, eh? Seems more effective than yours, then.
I guess removing hammers will do away with poorly built sheds as well. Good idea, let’s do it, removing all tooling in the world that might have a sub-optimal result.
No, there's no need for that. I don't see how banning hammers would help with Internet spam—just the AI will do.
You can't catch me in a logical trap here, hoefnix, because there isn't one. I'm mom saying you aren't allowed to play with silly string in the house; it's too much to clean up.
Ah, your lack of capability to understand a hyperbole explains a lot. I’m dad here saying, if you want to learn you have to practice, just don’t bother people with the results until they’re worthwhile.
What is it I'm practicing?
Are you this daft or just pulling my leg?
Yes, I agree. OK, now let's say 99% of users online agree that low quality content shouldn't be posted online. And then imagine there is some kind of technology that allows the 1% of "bad users" (the ones who don't care about low quality) to upload a thousand times more than other users can. It would follow that 90% of content online would be from these users that only represent 1% of the population. Do you see the problem?
Pinterest was already a sinkhole, best to be avoided. My problem is de statement that the OP made. AI isn’t the problem, its the people that think their rubbish is great and push it into our face so to speak. If someone builds a crappy shed, we can blame the hammer but in reality it is the self-appointed carpenter that created the mess.
