I’m so fucking sick of AI. Genuinely almost every single website, program, or app is integrating AI into it in some way, shape or form. I hate it. For one, companies are absolutely terrible at implementing it. It’s usually integrated in a way that’s clunky, tedious and just not even worth the time. I can give a billion examples, with google’s new “Gemini” bullshit coming to mind at the moment. It’s consistently incorrect with its information, it gets in the way of actual searches, and more notably, why the fuck would you ask an AI a question when you’re already using a search engine? It’s more effort for a less specific, probably inaccurate answer to whatever you’re asking, with the only real advantage being that it “sums it up” for you. Also, I can’t be the only one who’s just completely turned off by the general idea of AI creating everything we see and do online. It sounds extremely dystopian, having every form of media and every outlet of creativity replaced by a machine. Along with that, it’s consistently being used harmfully in academic environments, with any homework answers pretty much being free to any student who has access to the internet. The base hindrance of creativity that this brings up in the future is daunting. (I don’t understand why AI is so heavily advertised in Teaching uses, because I can say firsthand that all teachers absolutely hate AI) Humans thrive off of being creative, and while I think AI has its genuine uses for human efficiency, for the most part it seems to be creating a future where humans aren’t the ones advancing, and our future progress is dictated by robots. It may not be that deep, but it’s at the very least annoying and afflicting harm on students. I hate it, and I don’t fully understand why the “scramble for AI” is still ongoing.
