I'm not too surprised the younger generation has a healthy distaste for AI. AI represents a lot of negatives in the world today, which is kind of the icing on the shit pie for the young. They were already facing a pretty uphill battle ahead of them, then ChatGPT shit all over any hopes they really had. It is gutting the entry level positions already (or at least is being used as the scapegoat for this behavior by Execs). It is poised to collapse entire industries. It is already starting to speed up the further enriching the rich and enpooring the poor
Be really honest: if you were to go back to who you were as an 18 year old, with all of your hopes and dreams ahead, would you be looking at AI positively?
I would probably have given up.
sorry but this is just retarded.
kids have to protest something, but this? it's another tool. you can use it to make yourself smarter. just because you're not doing that, doesn't make it bad.
why don't they, I don't know, protest the destruction of the planet? oh I know why. because that's complicated, and the adversaries are ambiguous.
get off my lawn. lol
If you don't think that kind of behavior, by people with major control over the economy, is worth protesting, that gratuitous slur you used is about the kindest word I can think of for you.
NGL I can't imagine casually throwing slurs around having been acceptable on HN 1, 2, or even 5 years ago yet here we are.
