    Why the hate? Because 99% of what’s AI now is actively harming society.

    Training and running them consumes enormous amounts of energy, all the IP is within some gigantic monopolistic corporations, these corporations in turn push huge amounts of money into products that are not only bad, but dangerous (MS Recall or X’s porn generator AI), other corporations use AI as excuses to fire thousands of people and letting their core products rot away.

    Currently, AI has hardly any positive sides, and those positives are very very narrow. Overall it’s a net negative.

      99%? Really? Where did you get that percentage?

      The tech is awesome already and getting developed extremely fast. Sure, there are many negatives, but many might just be growing pains.

      On a wider scale : this is THE tech. This is the direction, it’s is inevitable. Of course it’s important how the development happens, there are many nuances to it. What I don’t like is these blanket hate statements against something. Many people are using ai today and benefiting in personal life and business.
