Meet the AI vegans. They are refusing to use artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasons
-
I refuse to use it because it's shit.
We are not the same.
*because you don't know how to use it
-
Yup, these things are still garbage for >90% of all applications people are jamming them into. Breathed a sigh of relief when my company CEO said he doesn't see us using AI for more than can center routing for at least the next several years.
Works relatively well for image editing
Else yea I would agree, sometimes it's just shoved for nothing, but 90% seems like too much
-
AI doesn't exist, machine learning algorithms can be useful and are used with no controversy, generative bullshit is basically useless.

Don't talk about things you don't understand, please, to avoid misinforming other

You're using a lot of very loosely defined terms with a lot of certainty. Machine learning is AI, we just usually apply it to the more simple versions of it. Where do you personally draw the line? I fully understand the plethora of risks, downsides, and injustices that can potentially be involved in the matter, but I legitimately don't understand the extremist level hatred that some people express to anything that could hold the title of AI. To me, it parallels with someone saying that they hate ionizing radiation. Frequently, it's also bad, and your entirely reasonable to try and avoid it on a daily basis, but it also has many uses that are beneficial and life-saving.

They just sound completely dumb, yet it's the majority of people here
For a place that welcomes people, inclusivity and hate discrimination, there's a lot of generalization of a lot of topics
-
This is the dumbest shit I've ever read. Refusing to submit to corpo ratfuckery isn't a lifestyle choice. It's common sense.
It is though

We don't need to invent new terms, like 'AI Vegan', when we have a perfectly good term already: Butlerian Jihadist.

I don't use A.I. because I've had nothing but negative interactions with A.I. Customer service bots that fail to give adequate responses, unhelpful and incorrect search result summaries, and, "art," that looks like shit hasn't made me want to sign up for ChatGPT or Gemini. For most people, this isn't a moral stance, it's just that the product isn't worth paying for. Stop framing people that don't use A.I. as luddites with an ax to grind just because tech bros spent billions on a product that isn't good yet.
Customer service AI sucks, I think we can all agree to this
But if you really believe that ChatGPT and Gemini is mainly for generating art, then you're completely wrong

For most people, this isn’t a moral stance, it’s just that the product isn’t worth paying for.
Wait till you see the price of a burger in another five years.
wrote last edited by [email protected]Yea, it's often really fucking cheap for the value, just like streaming services to an extent
-
Shit take, the more AI-made media is online, the harder it is for AI developing companies to improve on previous models.
It won't be indistinguishable from media made with human effort, unless you enjoy wasting your time on cheap uninteresting manmade slop then you won't be fooled by cheap uninteresting and untrue AI-made slop.

They all use each other's data to improve. That's federated learning!
In a way, it's good because it helps have more competition
-
That's really stupid.
-
I don’t use ai either. But because it’s fuckin stupid. It’s not even ai. It’s a glorified sorting algorithm.
What would make it 'ai' in your mind?
-

Sentience
-
Its neither for me, i just dont like getting wrong information and AI is giving tons of it.
Also its not intelligent it just fucking sounds so
I agree. AI would be way more useful if it gave some kind of indicator of accuracy, or even just saying "I don't know."
Right now, AI only doesn't have an answer when the goons who programmed it told it not to give one.
-
It is AI.
Not if you use "AI" as the abbreviation of "artificial intelligence".
If you use AI as meaning "what chatGPT & co are" then it's a trueism. -
Hard copium there
"AI" or LLMs are great for people without skill. They love them and get quite aggressive when you insult the machine.
-
Wow, so just like humans eating animal products throughout our early existence as beings, AI is the default position? What kind of bullsh*t is this? Just because billionaires are forcing these llms down our throats?
The propaganda is unreal.
-
"AI vegans" media trying to put an enemy up again. Smh
-
While billionaires keep using their private jets.
-
"AI vegans"? I knew guardian was already bought by tech bros, but wtf is that phrasing lmao I dont use AI either, simply because it is wrong more often than not and I am still capable of googling myself, but being cautious equals to being vegan in tech bro eyes?
Seems like it. Because vegan is already seen as a ridiculouse thing and "the enemy" by the average person
-
I'm technophobic. Fucking clankers
I see. Another one to serve the gloriouse republik!!
Long live chanclor palpatine!
