Cuts have ‘huge implications for hardship’ says charity – Channel 4 News
channel4.com/news/cuts-have-hu…
I'm all for people having negative views of AI, there's alot that's wrong. There's alot that's debatable (albeit those debates are painfully heated).
What I am tired of is the misinformation, especially the "AI is useless and you're deluding yourself if you think it's had any positive impact on your life" crowd.
I try to avoid getting into fights about things like the ethics questions, I will say I absolutely agree with shaming it's use in art, especially anything for-profit. And I hate that I feel the need to make a post about this because I know how visceral the response is in so many.
It's my values that we shouldn't take a tool away from people based on falsehoods.
If you want to say AI should be eradicated because it "steals" artist's works, have at it, let me know if you want to chime in on IP law topics and questions both for and against. (Not a lawyer, just a special interest in IP law a ways back).
If you want to call out it's environmental impact, fire away. (Let me know if you want me to tell you about how that's not an inherent problem but instead a corporate/capitalist one!)
If you want to call out it's negative impacts on education and skill building? Oooh boy, show me that thread because I'm on your side!
Propaganda? I can tell you it's baaaaaaad
But for the love of god don't flood my feed with "It's wrong 60% of the time" or any other variation of "it's fundamentally useless". Let alone pushes to shame all AI users.
Like I said, it's in my values to not deprive people out of falsehoods and to think about broader consequences. It's not a simple situation.
I sometimes wish I could just throw away some of my values because I have lost someone I love dearly over this... but I can't just throw it into the fire because people are upset, because people are pointing their hurt at a tool.
Just please... try and temper your hurt some so that it's not blindly lashing out? Just consider that other people are hurting too and sometimes hurt people hurt other people.

Stepped out of the shower today and had a moment appreciating myself, most of all appreciating that I actually like my hair now.
I'm not conventionally attractive, but I don't think of myself as ugly any more.
