I’ve been on Lemmy for about 2 weeks now, and I’ve noticed a trend:
The VAST majority of posts that mention AI in any manner are some dig or criticism or some other negative commentary, and the rare ones that have anything positive to say about it almost always have negative whatever-Lemmy’s-version-of-karma-is.
I get that AI isn’t without its problems, especially Grok with that “Mechahitler” nonsense a bit ago, but there seems to be particular vitriol here. I’m genuinely curious to know why people hate it so much here.
Most of the time they’re not even talking about AI, they’re instead talking about ancillaries like data centers, but they can’t fathom the distinction.
Hmmmm I wonder what all these data centers are being used for.
Yeah, and authors are to blame for trees being cut down. It doesn’t matter that books don’t necessarily need to be printed on paper, it’s a clear line from authors writing to trees being cut down, so we should all hate authors.
Right?
