      What’s wrong with it?

      That’s a complete disregard of a useful tool that brings measurable benefits.

        Why are you on fedi if you love the corpo slop machine so much? This platform was specifically made to get away from people like you. Go back to linkedin.

          Nobody proposed to ignore risks, but okay, you wanted to win this argument - so you had to invent it.

          Authors and maintainers of many open source tools that you use every day - whether that’s curl or linux with its army of developers - openly discuss the value LLMs bring. You either don’t care to listen or you choose to ignore their words because they contradict your beliefs.

          Funnily enough, many people in the industry with years of experience and a strong reputation have a fairly balanced view of AI, recognizing both its advantages and disadvantages. Only on social media do you find people who blatantly deny any positive contributions (or folks who believe that AI is irreproachable, but you won’t find them on fedi).

          There’s also huge downsides that everyone always seems to forget (enormous power/clean water usage, noise pollution, etc.)

            To be fair, this is what bothers me more than the supposedly non-existent benefits, because I’ve seen LLMs being useful as tools, but the impact on environment is not clearly communicated (I’d wager it’s because no one wants to admit that it’s enormous). For that reason I’m trying to use local LLM instead, and it is more limited in usefulness but that’s fine by me as it’s not the only tool I have

          Nah, be it AI psychosis or anti-AI psychosis - neither should dictate us what to say.
