I’ve successfully convinced my boomer MAGA parents that Gen AI is evil af. Which is honestly such a surprise and a relief, as I watch other friends with boomer parents who are addicted to talking to chatbots.
It sure looks that way. I even have friends who are losing other friends to chatbots.
It’s got me reading all the research there is to know about how LLMs affect people, and trying to throw together a list of resources to give to people when they tell me about their loved ones getting addicted to Gen AI.
This is meeeee
