Just some blog

being so staunchly anti generative ai while everyone around you is "i used chatgpt" and "i asked grok" and google search is useless and every company is implementing ai and every single celeb is taking ai money and partnering with ai is like... it's so jarring. why can't you see the harm like i can? why are you so lazy? why are we making society this stupid? can we please stop? it's killing people does that not matter to you?

people reblogging this who have an issue with "lazy" and "stupid" - you have to get over the hesitation of using those words. because it's literally what's happening. it's lazy to have ai write a paper for you. it's lazy to use ai to solve your problems. it's lazy to constantly rely on ai to answer every question instead of researching. and that's the part of ai that's dumbing people down. we are forgetting how to do research and find out answers on our own and people are using ai to get through college into jobs that require you to know what you're talking about. if you're anti-ai you have to be ready to face these truths about the people who constantly use it.

anyways tl;dr on that last post it’s like we’ve reached a point where in popular culture the ancient Greeks are remembered for their mythology and literature (and maybe Athenian democracy) while the Romans are remembered for their patriarchal imperialism, despite the fact that both cultures did plenty of both. and the consequence is that we’ve ended up with a bizarre quasi-gender binary where Greek stuff is for people who like mythology and literature and Roman stuff is for people who like patriarchal imperialism

I don't understand how people just Do things without daydreaming. like how are you not off in a silly little fantasy world rn
