Sounds like healthy skepticism to me. Assume nothing has changed until proven otherwise.
- AnimalMuppet 2y agoAssume things do not represent a discontinuous change until proven otherwise. AI has changed some things, and will change some more. Pretending otherwise isn't healthy skepticism, it's hiding your head in the sand. The real question is, which things does it change, and how much? Don't assume a discontinuous change without enough evidence, but there is enough evidence that something has changed.
- bheadmaster 2y ago> there is enough evidence that something has changed Of course, something has changed - every invention changes something, that is almost a tautology. However, is there any evidence that the change is negative and drastic enough to warrant my attention and time of day? I think not.
