    When people say this they are usually talking about a very specific sort of generative LLM using unsupervised learning.

    AI is a very broad field with great potential, the improvements in cancer screening alone could save millions of lives over the coming decades. At the core it’s just math, and the equations have been in use for almost as long as we’ve had computers. It’s no more good or bad than calculus or trigonometry.

      No hope commenting like this, just get ready getting downvoted with no reason. People use wrong terms and normalize it.

          Providing a counterexample to a claim is not whataboutism.

          Whataboutism involves derailing a conversation with an ad-hominem to avoid addressing someone’s argument, like what you just did.

              Yeah, go cry about it. People use AI to help themselves while you’re just being technophobic, shouting ‘AI is bad’ without even saying which AI you mean. And you’re doing it on Lemmy, a tiny techno-bubble. Lmao.

                No one is crying here aside some salty bitch of a techno-fetishist acting like his hard-on for environmental destruction and making people dumber is something to be proud of.
