We are in the age of AI, why not just accept it? Are people threatened by this? Are they disgusted? This is the start of my research. I have learned to use AI in a way that makes my life easier. So why so much hate against it? Are they jealous? Please debate but don’t argue in the comments. I want a civil debate. Intelligible answers only.
Personally, I don’t hate the technology. I hate what we seem to be sacrificing in its pursuit: the environment, the right to privacy and literacy. Also, it provokes me when I see people, such as coworkers and friends, refer to LLM frontends as a source of intelligence in the context of looking for answers in formal (workplace, government, education) and informal (socializing) situations. It really shouldn’t be bothering me if I know how I want to attain knowledge. I should just go about my day, but it provokes me still. I’m sure there was similar debate and division during the industrial revolution, though. Whatever. I have - hopefully - 60 more years to live and I don’t really care about what this technology does or doesn’t do to the upcoming generations. I’m not having kids anyway and I’m sure I’ll figure out how to process my feelings eventually in order to stop caring about how people interact with knowledge.
