No, I don't want generative AI anywhere.
I don't want AI to write.
I don't want AI to draw.
I don't want AI to learn.
And I certainly don't want AI to make any decisions for me or about me.
Now our governments (using OUR money) are following the AI tech bros into the AI-Hell pit! 🫠 
Please stop this madness already!

@Em0nM4stodon I agree 100%. AI overall is a giant scam that is designed to rip us off - like MS CoPilot. Never wanted it. Never asked for it. But it was dumped on us by default. Same with the useless AI summaries when you do an Internet search. So superfucial and meaningless. Why is AI being forced on us? Oh yeah, I forgot. Big IT has invested billions developing a product that few want abd want a return - essentially by theft.
You don't have to accept AI.
@Em0nM4stodon don't worry, they're plugging AI into our nuclear weapon systems so this will all be over soon

Curiously, the issue of AARP magazine that arrived in today’s mail has several articles extolling the wonders of AI for senior citizens. For example, “Companion Robots Can Reduce Isolation, Boost Health” and “Tech-Assisted Surgery - AI in the Operating Room” and “Repurposing Existing Drugs With AI.”
I'm against corporate LLMs, that serve to hook people's thinking on a subscription that will be enshittified.
I am for local FLOSS LLMs that I run, on my hardware, for my purposes.
In a local FLOSS LLM, I'm in control of my resources of computation. If I want a local Claude, I have it. If I want to train my own art ai on my content, I can do that. If I want to train on my documentation, I can do that.
The difference is who controls what you do.

I’ve tried green eggs and ham. I don’t like them, Sam I am!

I believe stopping AI is literally impossible. Pandora's box is open, just like it's impossible to stop the Internet. And honestly, I find it very helpful. I hope it can exponentially advance medical research too.
My main concerns are that it can aid mass surveillance in others' hands and be privacy invasive in one's hands. The latter can be mitigated by using Proton's Lumo or running an LLM locally.
Regarding art, the market will reject it, if it believes AI content is not art
@Em0nM4stodon But robots can better serve the #broligarchy after they reemerge from their luxury bunkers...
@Em0nM4stodon They won't stop, unfortunately!
@ml We have to stop them then.
@Em0nM4stodon I do not want it, Sam I Am.
@Em0nM4stodon Unfortunately, it’s too late. In the US, once doge showed up that was it. Now they are spending billions on AI directly and through contractors.
@Em0nM4stodon it is very sick I can’t believe!
