I think one thing you and many other people misunderstand is that the image generation aspect of AI is a sideshow, both in use and in intent.

The ability to generate images from text based prompts is basically a side effect of the ability that they are actually spending billions on, which is object detection.

It's bad at anything useful for programming too.

And the things it's good at have been developed by stealing GPL/copyleft code.

So you're happy to see AI take someone else's job as long as it isn't taking your job.

Taking the jobs of the people responsible for creating it seems preferable to taking others' jobs.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Less work being done by anyone is better. Thinking it's bad that work is done for us by robots is the brain worms talking.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Indeed. Ideally AI would do every job, so that humans can focus on just doing what we want to do. It'd be like the whole species getting to retire.

You’d rather cheer for people to lose their jobs without anyone calling you out on it, sure.

I’m not the angry one wishing unemployment on my “enemies” here.

Who are you?

What do you want?

The ideal endpoint is to eliminate the concept of "jobs" entirely. Why should people have to work?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Okay. So why are you breaking that guy's balls, over automating away jobs, which you don't want to exist?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Because currently we do need jobs. Otherwise why is he upset about AI in the first place?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Is he?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Sure seems to be, he said he's "stoked" for when AI comes for the "tech bros"' jobs. But maybe he should speak up to clarify his own view, rather than you and I speculating about it in a side thread that wasn't actually about him to begin with?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Are you sure you know what stoked means? Because it sure isn't anger.

But maybe he should speak up to clarify his own view

Or you could've asked, rather than repeatedly posturing. Especially when he asked you to stop doing that.

You need to examine your behavior throughout this thread.

You were the one who started talking on his behalf all of a sudden.

Do you listen to yourself?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Yes. What's your point here? Repeatedly quoting my comments back at me isn't adding anything.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I haven't said one word on that guy's behalf.

You've done little else.

You are a massive hypocrite.

If you're not doing this on purpose then you have my pity. Either way: good day.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 7 months ago

Okay, bye, I guess. I still don't know what exactly you're accusing me of, but whatever.

That comment was very Reddit of you. Don’t do that, please.
