Critics of A.I. - it's happening already (2.Viewing)

A.I. will become so invasive that we will have to go out of our way to avoid it.

Let me go on the record as...
I have begun by wiping it completely off my phone and desktop browser.

If I want it I go to grok but other than that no thanks.

Bets on how long before the movement against A.I. starts to grow?.

Terminator, man against machine, coming soon to a neighborhood near you!.

Received this email today, without me saying anything what would your opinion be if you received similar for your business?

With Microsoft completely screwing up windows using AI to code I cannot say I have any good feelings when I see an email like the one above.

In my head I see sloppy AI generated content with no work on behalf of the service company. I see AI over everything on their site and as a business owner my inclination is I would never trust AI to run my business.

Recently I read a story where someone made a website with bogus information and waited for it to be harvested by AI. Then he asked the different AI models a very specific question and they used his bogus website to make almost factual statement which were in reality completely bogus.

I closing, for me AI means whoever is charging me for the service is doing no work, I can just as well ask A.I. to do the same job for me.

In the future we will be looking for companies that have human operators behind the A.I. !!

And that solves one of the biggest criticisms I have - privacy of your data.

It's all bullshit anyways

I use LM Studio - Local AI on your computer to run local LLM models.

You can run other open source models as well on Pinokio (local song creation / text to speech models)

They don't need to connect to internet to use the models. Data stays on your computer.
