• This technology unnecessarily uses vast amounts of energy in a world where using more energy sadly usually means more pollution.
• This technology is working on devaluating labor in order to enrich even more the already rich, aggravating poverty everywhere.
• This technology is misleadingly being sold as a solution to problems it cannot solve.

@Em0nM4stodon My guess is that within a few years, unscrupulous lawyers will sue you if you have an AI generated image uploaded somewhere, because you infringed the copyright of their clients, who's material was used for training the AI without their consent.

In addition to all of that: It really doesn't work.
As a society we are spending more and more money for software that is less predictable and reliable.
A lot of people are okay with destroying the planet for something that doesn't work reliably and most people do not want.
Anyone with at least two working brain cells should have become anti-LLM and anti-chatbot the instant they understood the concept of hallucinations.

@Em0nM4stodon It depends on what type of AI and what you use it for. I'm using an AI program, a grammar checker named language tool, but while a talk claims it uses a neural net, others stated the free version is just an expert system. It runs as a server, so I wrote some code to feed it text while tracking line numbers and pruning out equations and coding examples. What it spits back is then turned into compiler-like error messages and I made the corrections manually.

@Em0nM4stodon To add a bit more, the AI program I used runs on a desktop computer. It found spastic-typing mistakes such as double commas and some bad editing - changing a noun from singular to plural, getting interrupted by someone with a pressing problem, and then forgetting that I hadn't changed the verb. It probably saved energy - otherwise the computer would have had to be turned on longer due to having to read all that text - over 400 pages - carefully.

I dunno. The AI has made me much much more productive as my work involves me learning lots of new technical concepts and software all the time. It reduces a lot of barriers to understanding. I find it hugely helpful, but I do despise AI written content.

When does a cognitive crutch morph into a cognitive dependency? Or then to a cognitive prison?
Like a dependency on cocaine, lots of people delude themselves they can avoid addiction, until their supply gets too expensive or unavailable.
Watching people go cold turkey during the height of the covid pandemic was reportedly horrific.
What happens when the LLM is manipulated to give only Republican viewpoints? Or only antivaxxer ideology?

Or pro-fossil fuel perspectives? Or pro-evangelical indoctrination? Or pro-slavery history lessons?
What happens to the users of these AI companies when the startup goes bankrupt in the AI bubble? It's stolen data, what happens to the data in a bankruptcy?
What happens when mandated use of an energy wasteful application comes before preventing an ecocide, mass unemployment, or double digit electricity rate increases?
The dependency can be abused to get government bailouts & subsidies.
