It's a simple cost/benefit analysis that (rightly) causes the massive AI backlash. For the average Joe, non-tech worker, the cons of AI are: * Higher electricty bills. * 5-6x cost of RAM, GPUs, and other computer components * Data centers popping up in their backyards * An internet inundated with slop * Slop beginning to infiltrate the video game industry and other creative industries * AI being used to justify gutting entry level jobs for a generation already screwed by larger, long horizon economic forces * Grok enabling the creation of revenge porn and CSAM with seemingly no repercussions * Massive IP theft on a scale previously unheard of * Etc. The pros of AI are: * It can summarize text and transcribe audio decently well. * It can make funny pictures of cats wearing top hats. * ???
