    Are we pretending that lots and lots of people aren’t incredibly horny for AI right now?

      Actual users hate AI. Shareholders love it. It’s a bubble and the business world is trying to force it everywhere they can to create a dependency.

        Correction: power users, such as the type on Lemmy, trend towards hating ai. That is by no means “all users” by any stretch of the term.

          Nah, they’ve done studies and most people find it fucking annoying, worse, and don’t want to pay any extra for it.

          The whole thing is an obvious supply side economics push.

            It’s really annoying when it’s pushed in our faces everywhere. For getting a quick image of something you specify, or help with some boilerplate text it can be pretty neat.

          Exactly.

          People seem to think “if I don’t do X, that means nobody does X”
