Now a days people refer to AI instantly for an answer. Maybe it’s a problem they could have solved within 10min in their head or a question they could have done an internet search on and read a few forums to figure out. However, now people go straight to AI which is known to give many many wrong answers.
I know a couple people that fit this bill and now I almost completely disregard what they say. We’ll even be talking face to face and they’ll ask AI something from our conversation in real time.


This is the type of reasonable that will lead us all to an AI hellscape.
Better be afraid of them new-fangled digital calculators too! Real calculations should be done by people. Having them performed by computers will make us dumber.
It’s a tool. It can be used right and wrong. Being afraid of the tool because it is being used wrong doesn’t make it go away, and doesn’t make it less useful.
You really think a calculator and generative AI are the same thing?
They’re both computers that can be used in helpful and harmful ways. Can you deliminate how exactly they are different, beyond scope?
I’m not going to bother…
So your entire complaint is based on vibes and feelings. Got it 👍
No I just know that any reasonable argument I provide won’t change anything. Proponents of AI have a similar psychological profile to religious people. Besides if you truly wanted factual information on the differences between AI and “tools” you’d look into it. You don’t.
