A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

If it actually has quality output this could be great for jargon filled non fiction works that are impenetrably dense for people outside of the field, like in law or science.
Accessibility app bad haha am I right
"Why would they fuck up a nice staircase by installing an elevator next to it"
Ableism at its finest.
This could help people learning any language, but people with an irrational hatred would rather have a knee-jerk reaction than think critically. They think this will make people stupid when they're already so stupid that they can't see actual use-cases.
I think people are just annoyed about the AI being used, especially when it's literally replacing the beautiful language used with simple tldr but the language is only part of the art piece, and usually the hardest one to digest if you have problems with reading.
Lord of the rings is amazing book for so many reasons, and if someone took a shortcut (skipped the songs or watched a movie) to learn the story I'd be happy for them - the story, the characters, the world are already absolute beauty even before considering how Tolkien told the story.

I'm in Gemany and our English teacher made everybody read Shakespeare, Dickens and more in the original. I estimate at least 1/3 of our class had reached a C1/C2 level of English after 3 years of his class.
