@th@social.v.st are you for real?

AI is a tool

So is the blockchain

I much prefer you advocate for banning presenters using pink socks 🧦

@marsxr@mastodon.social @th@social.v.st AI isn't a tool. AI is theft. It's unethical. And it should be avoided at all costs.

@quixoticgeek@social.v.st @th@social.v.st unethical?

I guess I’ll pause here. Actually not pause. Simply stop. Full stop.

For the record: human brain is adaptive. Neuroplasticity. Neirogenesis. Having deep conversations with AI enhances my 🧠

There is not a single human speaking so many languages, with such a broad knowledge and infinite patience. My personal ethics allow me to use AI.

@marsxr@mastodon.social @th@social.v.st AI knows nothing. People think AI works for the same reason people see faces in toast. It's that simple.

And that's before we consider the environmental impacts.

Calling everything “AI” since Nov ‘22 was a coup for product marketers and nobody else.

@paninid@mastodon.world @quixoticgeek@social.v.st @marsxr@mastodon.social @th@social.v.st Yeah. This is why I've started specifying that I'm critiquing LLMs or genAI specifically, or at least putting scare quotes around "AI". Perhaps in the future there will be other approaches to machine learning that won't be so environmentally destructive, and so corrosive of culture, education, creativity and critical thought.
