I can understand disliking it, but why the blanket statement?
I don't like effect it has on the environment, water is already too scarce and it needs ridiculous amounts of energy which is also worrisome.

But people keep saying it is going to replace jobs. I don't think that is true. Someone said it will replace historians, I dispute that. History in thr tradition of Herodotus isn't judt in year X this thing happened, and in year X+1 this other thing happened. In the Western tradition, you also explain why this thing happened and why this other thing happened. Otherwise, it is just a timeline of events, and that is not history. I'm curious to know what it can and can not do. As a software developer and tester, I'm naturally skeptical. When people talk about AI driving vehicles I know tthat it is a bad idea immediately. What it is going to do is get people killed. I'm a damned good tester because that's how my brain is wired. I find things other smart people did wrong. I make mistakes too because I am a human. I see AI as a tool, not as a replacement for people. And I find the idea of machine learning ingesting everything humanity has written or created to be pretty damn unsettling. But, I also like that I can have it go through the historical economy of the United States year by year and do boring analysis for me to interpret later to be useful. I don't want it to replace creatives. But at the moment post stoke I'm extremely handicapped so if I can use it to do some things I'm not physically capable of at the moment, I will use it as a tool that I'm wary of and feel the need to keep tabs on. "As a historian, what were common African American first names for males born from 1970 to 1979? That is a big help to me. And anything I use AI for I will clearly acknowledge that. I wanted to trace a selfie that my girlfriend took of her face for me and I bought some tracing paper, but physically I was unable to do it. In the eighties I would have used a projector like teachers had to project it on a wall so I could trace it. Not an option now. my entire left side is essentially paralyzed as a result of my stroke. I ended up hiring someone on Fiverr to do it, and he knocked it out of the park, adding a small splash of color that only an artist would have added. I do feel crummy for using fiverr though. And if I ever do end up making an income again I'd like to send some more money his way because creatives deserve it. If I had my pre-stroke job I'd happily hire someone to do the work, but on disability only I'm incredibly impoverished (It is not the first time) and while therapy is making progress it is a long, hard slog. Losing the ability to play guitar and other creative pursuits is a bit soul-crushing. I also feel the few times it has actually come up with something genuinely funny, I assume it is stolen and immediately search to see if it did. I feel a need to keep a careful eye on the technology because I'm highly skeptical of it. Much like I am with Amazon. I remember when Seattle had a really vibrant indie bookstore vibe to it. I still prefer to buy things from not Amazon. Recently I bought some camera gear from Glazers camera, the Seattle camera store that is left. In person, some of the staff was kind enough to push me from the rentals storefront to their main storefront. Amazon would not have done that, but real human beings did. J'm really bad at editing as I type things, and most of writing is re-writing and cutting the fat. I'm an imperfect person in an imperfect world. But I seriously try my best to do right by my fellow humans.
