Huh… so it’s getting its advice scrape from Reddit. Now it makes sense where it’s getting the idea of telling teens to die by suicide. That place is a shithole where intelligence goes to die.
No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I don't hate it, just how it's being used.
Then again, proper use of AI, if even achievable would most likely result in disaster in some way.
The way "AI" is marketed today isn't real AI, it's just a lazy source copy-pasting bot made for our convenience.
Lol. For me I just get impatient with AI. Most of the time the things I tried to use it for, it either couldn't do, did poorly or did wrong. It was simply easier for me to do the shit myself instead of burning the planet by doing 50 prompts to get one useful result.
I tried it, learned about the environmental costs and then I stopped using it. The only thing its good for is for super basic bitch translations like that one time I didn't know what a particular mathematical formular was like in English and I couldn't find an answer after searching manually for awhile.
That's the only time AI was helpful to me.
And honestly, I just don't trust that is can help me with what I need it for 99% of the time because it just makes shit up constantly. I can't justify using this tool when the only useful result I ever gave me was the correct way to say a mathematical formulae in English. That is just too fucking weak. I am much better at looking for answers myself, writing and drawing things than any AI will ever be because I know what the fuck I want and I can make it myself while the AI has no idea what it's doing and only looks good to people who has zero reading comprehension nor visual literacy.
Like, I think AI music can be pretty good but I'm also a musical retard and I have no idea how to listen to music like a real musician, so to me it sounds good, but to someone who knows what they are doing, I'm sure AI music sounds like ass.
That's me with AI writing and artwork.
Hate not so much for AI in and of itself, my ire is the resource use for one. We were already draining aquifers that took thousands of years to fill and now we're burning even more for datacenters (DCs).
To top it off, America's western deserts are the best place for DCs. No natural disasters, stable and predictable weather, tectonically inactive. Every time I've had to pick a primary or backup DC, I'd hit one in Las Vegas or somewhere out west. (This experience was pre-AI.)
These DCs are burning power and causing higher bills to consumers, which is just fucking obscene. States should legislate that DCs have to bring at least some of their own, dedicated renewables, and pay a premium to the power company for the extra stress and maintenance on the grid. These costs should not touch customers, residential or business.
Maybe even worse is the economic aspect. Have a look at the current Buffett Index, the ratio of the total United States stock market to GDP. We topped 200% for the first time, ever. For comparison, the Great Depression and Great Recession were around 120-130%. This "extra" stock market valuation is all due to AI speculation.
So for all the other whining lemmy does about AI, it's the ecosystem and economic disasters it's creating that we'll all remember when the bubble pops.

Is that Brian "Please don't call me Brian "Brian Kibler" Kibler" Kibler?
Not sure about "hate", but it's clearly a bubble and all the billions are going into AI and not things that could prevent an economic downturn.
Even if you're not opposed to it for copyright or environmental or social reasons, AI is currently wrecking markets and finances for the next decade.
Why is being confidently wrong considered an exclusive or primary trait of white males, and why would anyone attribute this behavior primarily to their gender or race?
Needlessly divisive identity politics that gets spread around a lot in the form of tweets/articles/memes because it's controversial.
I don't hate LLMs I hate how they are being used and what they are being used for. I am not a luddite (even if I jokingly claim to be) and do see value in LLMs for some uses. Just not the ones they are primarily being used for in America
