Need a keyboard with a dedicated "slop" button

Companies hopping on a fad bandwagon doesn't mean that the public in general wants it.
wrote last edited by [email protected]Yes, what it actually signifies is that markets are mostly run by supply side economics. In other words, the typical product creation story is that companies produce products and then try to shove them down everyone's throats.

I have no idea what point you’re trying to get across but I just got back from shopping for a laptop for my college kid and pretty much all of them had a slop button
If you are still looking https://frame.work/ I didn't see any ai slop button on these.

I despise whenever someone talks like this about drawing. Everyone can draw. Nobody was born being able to make masterpieces from day one. It's not some mystical arte that only those with the Chosen One gene can do. It all comes down to a willingness to try and to learn. That's it. Using "talent" to bar yourself from doing so is only doing yourself a disservice. Even drawing silly little stick men is still practice, and I can attest to that from both first and second-hand experience. Just pick up a pencil, or boot up paint on a computer (but please, at least download paint.net or something), and you'll find that you can indeed draw, you just have to do it enough to gain confidence. It's like walking, or driving a car. I don't see anyone saying that some people have innate driving talent and some don't.

"AI" is not just LLMs or diffusion models, and that's what I think OPs is about, like, do you also hate Stockfish? Or enemies in a videogame?
Also, some things are called AI that aren't. People are freaking out as soon as the term is mentioned without checking if it's actually some sort of model or if it's just a basic algorithm with a buzzword tossed on.

"AI" in videogames is basically never powered by large models like LLMs or Stable Diffusion or others. The fact you compare them only demonstrates how fucking little you actually know about this topic you are BLINDLY defending.

Could is what should be. That is what we also should act according towards.
Instead of attacking symptoms, attack the root cause. Which still is capitalism. Corpos will use energy that damages the environment because they will seek the most profits and least expenses under a market economy.
LLMs and AI would still be developed under any other system. Capitalism doesn't invent things, all it invents are ways to commodify things.
Funny. AI's commosification of creative effort itself is what most people are hating on. Hate capitalism's commodification on everything? Then you might consider hating the paragon of commodification built on theft!

It’s AI the same way the CPU players in NHL ‘94 are AI
To a layman, no it's not and should not be viewed as the same, either. One is a MASSIVE stack of precomputed matrices (NOT a neural network), the other a stack of predetermined algorithms with some random() thrown in.
They are all actually and literally completely different in form, function, and computing requirement.

Environmental responsibility?
That's the only real argument they have and even that is on shaky ground.Ahh yes, not the literal theft of billions of peoples' work. Not prematurely replacing jobs with machines. Those are all totally cool things LLMs are doing!
... You and your type are fucking clowns.

I beg to differ. Anti ai is way bigger on Lemmy than pro. You can see this even by the likes.
Second part is about semantics of ai. We use the term AI because that kind of stuck. Everybody uses the term. It makes no sense to every time rage about what it means specifically, especially since most people do fairly understand what it is.
Clearly they do not know what it is when they say, "LLMs and video game AI are the same thing!" No. No they aren't. At all. In basically every case, they are wholly different.

I'm really happy with my ASUS Zenbook 14 (16GB memory, 512GB SSD, Intel Core Ultra 7 255H), which I got for $700, in case you're still looking for a recommendation. Absolutely worth it IMO, though I'm running Linux, so the Copilot key is mapped to the compose key.

I'm a conservative bigot only when it comes to AI
See, that narrows it down

That's absolute bullshit. I spent years trying to get good at drawing. I bought lots of books on how to draw and was never able to make anything that didn't look like it was made by a 5 year old. I even learned Photoshop and Illustrator cause I thought that those would be a gateway for me to get better. Spoilers, it didn't.
So go fuck yourself with your "everyone can draw" horseshit argument. No, not everyone can draw. And it doesn't just take "working hard at it till you're good". You have to have talent. I fucking don't, as well as lots of others out there.
And I said in my comment as well as many other places, these AI drawing sites need to compensate the people who's talent they, at this point in time, have stolen. Just because I think the technology has purpose doesn't mean I don't think that there are problems with it.

See! Immediate attack on me. You don't know anything about be and what I believe.

Hence why I didn't say people who don't do it are lazy. Laziness is an inherently capitalist ideal, saying that those who aren't constantly working are somehow lesser. However, those who don't at least try tend to quote the idea of a "lack of talent", which is simply not true or helpful. Everyone is able to draw, though some may need some help in doing so. It's part of being alive.

You must only be reading web forums like Lemmy/Reddit. I think society as a whole is very excited by the idea of AI.
Companies everywhere have been racing to be the first to add AI to their products, for instance. Not just tech bro companies either. Everybody.
Edit: so many downvotes and no comments. I see AI hype everywhere, it’s a fact. I’m not saying it’s a good thing, just that it isn’t limited to tech bros.
You got me wondering, and it seems like opinion is mixed among US adults
Overall, we saw mixed emotions around the rise of AI. 39% of Americans feel positive about AI while 20% feel negative. The most commonly expressed emotion was curiosity, followed by interest and worry.
It seems to hold true internationally too
People are most likely to say they are concerned (32%), curious (30%), and hopeful (27%) about artificial intelligence.
...
24% of respondents said AI will make our lives better. 41% of respondents think AI will make our lives both better and worse. Only 10% of respondents think AI will only make our lives worse -
Equating someone lacking talent for something with literally being disabled is a pretty stupid take.
-
That doesn't narrow it down, are you a conservative bigot, or just an AI-hater?
My conservative neighbor posted something online about the gays "shoving their lifestyle down her throat." That phrase must be being pushed from Fox News or something.

Aren't you OP? Also, people currently understand "AI" (a marketing term) as "LLMs" and audiovisual producing software. Had you mentioned it in the late 90s, it would've been more about "The Matrix" kind of sci-fi AI, for instance, and before it would've referred to Cameron's Terminators or Herbert's "machine intelligence". Words and their context. You're being purposefully obtuse because people here wrote thoughtful comments disagreeing with the premise in the image you posted (and apparently agree with) and you don't like it as it makes you feel silly. That's all.
OP in this case would be the Tumblr user sexygaywizard who made the post in the image

Only 10% of respondents think AI will only make our lives worseSaying society overall is excited might have been an overreach, but to say only tech bros are hyping this is far from reality. I think there’s plenty of people that are excited about AI. And I don’t necessarily think that’s a good thing. More than 32% of people should be concerned about AI.
