I thought this was a pretty good video. Frankly, I disagree with what a lot of people in anti-AI communities say about the superiority of doing things the hard way. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the easy way if it gets you the same result, and I don’t think we’ve lost anything meaningful just because, say, the average person no longer has any phone numbers memorized. I think technology making life easier is a good thing.
But, as Rebecca Watson points out, so-called AI doesn’t just replace things like rote memorization. It replaces thinking. That’s dangerous, and therein lies the difference between AI and other tools.
No one knows the exact effects yet, because obviously there aren’t any long term large scale studies. As much as I dislike AI some of these claims are very misleading, though they might turn out to be true. This is all speculation. We simply don’t know yet.
But I recommend that you be careful so as not to drown in an avalanche later.
I 100℅ agree. I just don’t like being misleading, even if the statement lines up with my own views.
I understand you here, there’s nothing to say. :3
