I have a lot of these moments nowadays where I try to figure out if I am becoming the old fart, or if my skepticism is actually legitimate. It’s a difficult exercise, often futile, but it’s a good first step. It always felt like my parents never really asked themselves “why do we feel like technology X is bad”…they just had a knee jerk reaction to it and banned me from it.
- Log_out_ 3y agoValue is human attention and a new generation valuing different things, auto devalues the old. Thugs stay relevant, by being sifted from the sand and put in collages in the new.
- mym1990 3y agoWould not be surprised if this is AI generated garbage...
- AlexandrB 3y agoWhat makes me think AI is the real deal is that it was pretty obvious (to me) that crypto and "the metaverse" were both dead ends. I certainly have doubts about AI and, like the post's author, I don't like a lot of things about it but I don't get that feeling of "this is useless bullshit".
- mym1990 3y agoAgreed here, it feels like everything is pointing toward a machine augmented future, and AI has proven its usefulness in a wide range of applications. Ultimately the direction that it goes is not up to any one person, but us as a species. Do I think we can make the right decisions? Not sure...but if we can't...thats just natural selection baby.
