Youngster, you're very bad at a this.

No. You don't have a clue what you're saying and still arguing a point that was never made by me.

Please. Stay focused. If you're anti trump we aren't enemies. If your pro trunk we have issues.

That is all that matters until we are done.

You're the one not understanding here.

It's not all that matters.

My point is the left as a group is alienating and isolating themselves from modern tools that the right are utilizing to gain advantageous.

They alienate themselves from these tools by making the same virtuosity grand standing about the evils of AI.

I understand you're saying it's the people using it. To me that is still just driving a wedge in that it creates an attitude that AI is not something the right should adopt since it's a nefarious tool and only people who are bad or nefarious themselves could use a nefarious tool.

Is your argument that we should use generative AI to mislead people? To make fake videos and images and such to use as "proof"?

[–] thedruid@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

I never said anything other than unregulated growth and use would be used for nefarious purposes

Hopefully That's not a controversial stance? But everything else is your projection

Good evening
