Not a ragebait post.

I started thinking why I hate AI and it’s mostly:

  • It is pushed down my throat very hard for what it does;
  • The unauthorized use of content on the internet;
  • The worsening of the environmental crisis;
  • The content it generates is shit.

I am wondering do you have other arguments against it?

    I hate it because I won’t be able to escape from it. It will permeate everything and destroy whatever bit of functional society we have left. Forget about the internet becoming nothing but AI bots talking to each other, eventually most IRL interactions will be diverted to AI or have to be screened through AI. You already can’t talk to a human at any online businesses, and even companies that have phone numbers route you through endless menus–those will all become AI bots too, and repeating “representative” into the phone will do you no longer do any good.

    Even doctors are already using it now, to shave a few more minutes off each appointment, by getting an AI summary of the patient’s records (probably full of wrong info) so they don’t have to bother to read the chart. Then they record the visit and get an AI summary of it (again likely full of errors), so they don’t have to write anything either. That is already happening now. It’s bad enough now when you can usually only get in to see the nurse practitioner instead of the doctor (while paying the same fee as when you do see the doctor), it won’t be long before we’ll be limited to chatting with an “AI practitioner” (and still paying the same rate).
