    That’s a problem with unchecked capitalism, not AI. Remember how George Jetson was able to have a house in the sky, a suitcase spaceship, full home automation, a robot maid, and supported his whole family by pushing a button? Consider how many people lived and worked on the ground beneath the cloud cover to make that possible.

      Remember how he also only worked 3 days a week, and had job security even though he was fired every episode?

      George Jetson had a very good union.

      The Jetsons were the 1% and the Flintstones were the rest.

      They were the Elysium space station people

    I’m seeing a lot of AI apologists in here. I want the leisure time required to create art, instead of being fucking burned out from working multiple jobs and spending all my available free time doing chores. Fuck AI, fuck the uncompensated artists and illegitimate theft of those works used to train the AI, and fuck you for normalizing it.

      Let me make it clear first. Generative AI is not art. Prompt engineering is not a real job.

      AI is just a tool. It is still waiting for an artist to use it to create art, just as a Photography or Photoshop image is not an art by itself.

      But… training with images is the same as humans learning how to draw, though… I know it’s boring but what you said is boring too. We could fall back to the same conversation over and over because you start with the same conversation again and again.

      FUCK AI, and also FUCK PEOPLE AGAINST AI, Good thing I hate everyone!

    Anyone who believes AI is being used for art/writing and not for other things like doing the dishes, has a myopic understanding and a strong confirmation bias. This strawman argument is defeated by a simple Google search to see the multitude of other places where this technology is benefiting humanity.

    AI is helping physicists speed up experiments into supernovae to better understand the universe.

    AI is helping doctors to expedite cancer screening rates.

    Oh, and AI is powering robots that can do the dishes too.

      Isn’t it more relevant to point out, that washing machines are using machine learning algorithms for years?
