Your position is: “I like AI because it makes my job/hobbies easier. Also my coworkers do the same, because they are in almost the same position as me. I understand why people don’t like AI, they must just be reading fake-news about it and believing it. Why can’t they see that AI is a benefit for society?”
Not once did you mention any of the reasons people are opposed to AI, just that you hope one day they will get over it and learn how to use the tools to bring down big business.
I like how you imply that only programmers at large corporations know how to build things. If they would just use the AI tools I bet you could hire in a bunch more developers for cheap to boost productivity!
Here’s a clue: no one gives a shit about making it slightly easier to code, make pictures, or write emails. The costs for maintaining the system and developing it are absurd when we have actual problems affecting people right now. This is all a waste of time, and is Americas latest scam. Before that was crypto currency, medical investment fraud, and a hundred other get rich quick/save the world schemes designed to do one thing: generate profit for a small group of people so they can ride off into the sunset, their American dream complete.
You’re absolutely delusional if you think no one wants code done quicker and easier, and that’s not to .mention the endless other things it makes possible like giving people access to vital services like heathcare in their native language, etc, etc.
These are things that are going to totally change the world for the better, removing power from corporations and giving to to people. You may not understand that because you’re not involved in actually doing anything productive but it’s a reality everyone can see.
Yes things have been scams there are also things that have dramatically changed the world for the better, heathacare and education in remote and impoverished areas all entirely depends on the mobile networks. They’re also now absurdly cheap, the cost and effort of sending text used to be prohibitive but now you can video chat with your whole family all day every day at no extra thanks to a technology which became ubiquitous.
As for your very wise solution of ‘just hire more developers’ yes that is why corporations are able to capture and control markets, a world where only the rich have the power to make things and compete is a horrible late capitalist hell - stop defending capitalism just because you’re used to it, yes you have an affluent life thanks to the suffering of others which is great for you but I don’t want to live like that, I don’t want to require children to slave in cocoa and coffee plantations or starving mothers to work 16 hour days in fast fashion garment factories when we have the ability to free those people and give them good lives by harnessing ai to help automate boring and laborious tasks.
Capitalism is not as good as you seem to think it is, learn about the reality of capitalism beyond your glib bubble and you’ll realize that ai tools are vital for a fair world and a world at peace.
