Because investors are overcommitted to it and the real allure isn’t increased value for society it’s in its potential to eliminate their labor costs.

Which will also eliminate their profit cost. Profits are negative costs if you think about it.

What a stupid headline

[–] haywire7@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

It's not popular it's just another overused bubble fad that will make a select few some money for a while and cost all of us time and energy to avoid or work around for a looooong time.

military wants ai

Just because it's not always 100% accurate doesn't mean it doesn't make things easier.

Example for yesterday. I was looking for some terminal command I needed to run on my router. Searched duckduckgo, the first few results were way off of what I needed, then tweaked search query and searched on Google, bunch of sponsored stuff and bunch of stuff I didnt need. Went to claude ai and it spit out the right thing first try.

I try not to default to AI chatbots, but sometimes you can't beat the results.

Also search engine results seem to suck these days, or I've just come to expect too much.

Why does my use of fallacy fail to produce a meaningful headline?

Idk man it's crazy tho how the AI did those things to the things when it did the AI stuff like woah man that's wild like the future is in the future, but it's also here right now.

I'm halfway assuming I'll get down votes and angry responses for this, and I didn't read the article (yet), but honestly the title is inaccurate. It's simply not true that "nobody wants it". You'd have to be willfully ignorant or living on Mars to think that.
