The automobile has been a net benefit to society dosent stop Daren going 80 in a 50 zone ( 30 during school hours ).
I feel like LLMs are largely the same. They are useful and can do good things, but they can also be used to do totaly inane shit… Dont be Daren.
Automobiles are also in practice quite harmful to public health because their addictive and user-lock-in effects and the resulting total lack of exercise. US Americans are mostly not aware of that because the notion to walk half an hour to get somewhere is already completely alien to them. Like somebody who first drinks two bottles of beer in the morning, in order to barely function, can possibly not understand that somebody can just drink whater when they are thirsty.
AI as it is forced on people today will probably be worse for both critical thinking, and social cognitive abilities.
And cars were worse for physical health yet here we are.
I suspect you may be part of the crowd I’m addressing this to but progress is progress and you can’t uninvent shit and you can’t predict adoption.
As it stands “AI” is here to stay and no movement of luddites is going to change that. Globally “we” are saying it’s valuable.
What we are lacking right now is control over the speed and direction.
Going back to the car analogy this is why licenses exist, and registration, and laws. This too will come with AI only when the problem becomes so big or so dangerous to necessitate it. I suspect we will be there soon. Youth unemployment is fucked everywhere and only getting worse.
Use AI to augment learning, not replace learning. Also most people hate AI slop, not AI.
…all AI output is slop sooooooo

Phewph, came real close to being a Daren, there.
derin is even worse… you probably do 80 in a 50 while also being drunk…
You’re one to talk, AJ. Bet you don’t stop for people in a roundabout.
