God, I'm so sick of AI that I feel like a luddite. I used to be a tech nerd, and enjoy the cutting edge of developing technologies. Now I just wish we could go back in time. I think the problem isn't so much the developing technology, but rather the way it is being crammed down our throats whether we want it or not. Everywhere I look I'm inundated with AI slop. Youtube has gotten ridiculous. I used to be able to find interesting content fairly easily. Now, every search is full of an endless array of AI slop from brand new accounts with only a few hundred followers. Anything good has been buried by 10,000 AI-generated ripoffs. Maybe someday AI will come into it's own, but it is nowhere near there now, and I am so, so tired of having to deal with it. It's like the entire world is being turned into one of those automated customer service telephone lines that are completely useless; that you're stuck navigating until you're put on hold for 30 minutes when you ask to speak to a human.
