@milochkals They’re playing pretend. It’s weird, but is it really any different from gaming? They aren’t hurting anyone and it’s what they do for fun. 🤷♀️
@TheDavidHasbun It’s improved my life. I was able to educate myself which resulted in a large promotion about 4 months after started talking to chat gpt. Improving society doesn’t happen overnight. It also requires individuals to participate.
@mary_pezzulo The treats are exponentially better. Or are you one of those people that thinks ai contributes nothing to society? What I’ve done with ai is absolutely better than a stack of doughnuts.
@ginald87 My ex dumped me, and his mom emailed to tell me to give him a chance to come to his senses. I decided that the main benefit of him dumping me was that I didn’t need to talk to her anymore.
So many people say “I don’t use AI” as if it automatically makes them superior to those who do.
“At least I don’t use AI” becomes their entire argument. You could be creating, learning, and thriving with it, and they’ll still try to make you feel beneath them.
They imagine you press a button and the finished work magically appears. Anyone who’s tried to bring a specific idea to life with AI knows there’s more to it than that.
You don’t have to use AI. You don’t even have to like it.
But refusing to learn how something works doesn’t put you above everyone else or qualify you to dismiss everyone who uses it.
And “I don’t use AI” still tells me nothing about whether what you made is any good.
@NicoPhysique When my kids were younger, I would get two of the 4 for $4 meals at Wendy’s and it fed me and the two kids. It was usually a burger for me, a burger for my son, my daughter would get the chicken nuggets, and we would all share the fries.
Nobody made you the fucking hall monitor of creativity. If you want to be miserable on principle, that’s your business. The rest of us don’t need your permission to make things.
@tomislav_rupic I have the same problem. But I feel a need to point out to ai haters that they can’t stop me from doing what I want. So evidently X thinks I enjoy that. 🤷♀️ Kinda do.
@xianghu73574129@Frederi37971421 I agree, generally speaking, but also, if you conduct yourself in a way after hours that doesn’t reflect their values, it could be said that you probably don’t reflect their values while on the clock too. Cancel culture creates problems on both sides.
