Yeah its OK. I probably interact with more people IRL than other lemmings. And its bad out there. Normie's in general loooove their slop bots. It stems from a lot of humans being idiots in general but also verrrrry tech illiterate.
I'm not a basement dweller because I can't afford one.
Fuck you my Lemmy room is in the attic.
Yyessss
Ironically I do like my basement. But i also have a life outside
I am not sure they are idiots. We do the same as them on other domain that got industrialised sooner in history. Most of us buy clothes pre-made by industries we know being evil. We know the pollution is huge, we know it involve child labour, we know the clothes are of poor quality and soon to be out of fashion anyway. But it is cheaper and more convenient than to buy our clothes hand made at some tailor.
We also do the same for fournitures, and some of us even buy industrial food.
Why would they prefer human made things just for IT domain? And if we reject machine made things in IT, why do we accept it in other domains?
more convenient? definitely. cheaper? y'all making me grateful for my tailor.
I think I’ve only encountered clearly anti AI people twice IRL. What I found kinda ironic is how they both parroted the same anti AI talking points I’ve already seen online multiple times.
Well yeah, I'd imagine anti ai folk are largely technical because we actually know what's going on, and are probably more likely to be on something like the fediverse. Normies just go oh, google has sure gotten shitty and then they keep using it.
