I think you're reading too deep into what I was saying. Perhaps I wasn't being clear, my bad if so.

I'm not against AI tools to assist people's work. Using them for grammar/spellcheck, code completion and automated testing, artwork help for filling in repetitive background details/textures, automatically removing background details in pictures like dumpsters or people photo bombing, etc.

What I am against is the grifting, the near religious devotion by tech bros to AI replacing humans in all areas of life, and the fact that the groups and companies controlling almost all of the development of this tech are multi-billion/trillion dollar corpos that don't make all aspects of their tech open source and are 100% motivated by profit.

Sorry, my comment wasnt really directed at you specifically.... Just the fediverse general hate for all things AI

yours was the first that mentioned "art" which triggered me, lol

I think we are actually both on the same page... You have a reasonable view of the whole AI thing. It's rare on lemmy/mastodon

Thanks for your response. Yeah, I think the issue isn't the technology, it's who controls and owns it.

I doubt it would be anywhere near as controversial if it were all fully open source and run by public organizations and communities that were interested in bettering the human experience and reducing mundane work vs maximizing profitability.
