I’m not even advocating, I’m just trying to inform you people who are clearly in a bubble thinking everyone hates AI, they don’t and that became crystal clear at my recent family gatherings as the one tech guy.
I think Lemmy in particular has a bad problem of assumed group think, it makes sense since most of us left prior platforms for freedom and decentralization reasons, stuff like boycotting major companies, switching to Linux, etc all of that is much less prevalent then some very vocal people on Lemmy think.
I’m glad you had a different experience, but I see AI use increasing all around me by otherwise nontechy people, whereas I get on Lemmy and you know what the majority of the opinion is here.
“Normies” are idiots. They’re the same people denying the efficacy of vaccines or the veracity of the moon landing. What they do should NOT be used to validate the correctness of something.
That entire statement is a lie. Antivaxers and other conspiracy nuts are just as tiny a minority as the Lemmy bubble. If you want to discredit the “normies”, at least use arguments that are actually true.
No one wants AI slop.
Y’all don’t realize how much of a bubble you’re in on the anti - AI front, the vast majority of normies are catching on and use genAI
Tech bros, for some reason always trying to use group pressure as a legitimate argument.
That’s literally what the comment above it was doing too though. It’s a very common anti-AI argument to appeal to social proof.

Since we’re sharing anecdotes, everyone at my recent family gathering was staunchly against AI and I’m the only tech person in it.
Being anti AI doesn’t mean you’re in some isolated bubble.

This is still “you’re the minority, better follow the herd, just saying”.
No, it’s “you all seem to think everyone else also hates AI, but they don’t” it was directly in response to the comment “no one wants AI slop.”
Thank you for your concern.

Ah yes hand waive away everything you don’t like as idiots who deny vaccines and the moon landing.
I am talking about normal normies, not fringe conspiracy normies.

Republican candidates are turning against data centers because AI is unpopplar.
Yes, it’s partially the local impact of data centers, but AI offers horns to the issue not a halo.
Edit: Oh, how thing have changed in 9 months lol
Sure just like Republicans were against big tech a few years ago.
