Also when AI bros exclaim "I thought you free software advocates didn't like copyright".

The issue is the ruling class in control of this tech using it against the working class's interests. If we seized control (and became the ruling class to serve the people's needs), it wouldn't be a problem.

    This reminds of me of similar experience on lemmy.ml where yogthos posted a blurry picture with meme text, and a person and I first started believing it was AI because of the weird context of the image that looked unrealistic. Then a couple other people started to question if it was really AI, and a reverse image search led them to finding a post of the image that existed pre-AI. I did some extra digging and found related images on a firefighter magazine website that included the location and time the event occurred, and I deleted my previous comment upon discovering this.

    I do try to resist commenting on a subject before doing an investigation, but sometimes I am guilty of being too quick to make an assumption. With AI, though, it's really hard to take any media as truth anymore, so I am very skeptical of everything I see at this point.

    I have seen videos of these machines (or similar ones) being used in medical emergencies in remote areas. That's probably a more practical use. Perhaps as cities develop into massive superstructures, air travel may be more necessary, at least in a smaller scale after trains do a greater portion of transportation.
