The AI hysteria really does live on, rent free.

Lol? The major tech that's pushing people out of jobs indeed lives on rent free.

That's why I always hire artists for my memes.

Seriously. Did I steal someone's job when I made my own awful phototshop memes 10 years ago?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Yes, you and I both should have commissioned a professional to photoshop a dick into a political candidate's mouth, we're stealing the creativity they survive off. "Starving artist" is a new term AI coined.

Lol what job did this replace? Also, while I obviously can't speak for everyone, I wasn't hiring artists for the "art" that AI is creating for me now. I was just going without. So no one is out a job.

Yes, rent free in your skull is where it lives.

Rent seems pretty high, the detriments of LLM AI seem to only be getting worse not better.

You're not charging it rent to live in your head, silly.

The initial "detriments" are weirdly similar to how people bitched about the industrial revolution. Yes, a lot of the really dumb, basic, repetitive jobs are getting trampled over but that was the fucking point. If this early stage of AI can do your job so well you aren't needed, you've had it too easy for too long.

The only difference I've noticed between now and three years ago is everyone accusing anything that's average or below in quality of being AI. In other words, hysteria.

It's charging us to ignore it.

It's not being ignored, it's being used and developed.
