      Would love an explanation on how I’m in the wrong on reducing my work week from 40 hours to 15 using AI.

      Existing in predatory capitalistic system and putting the blame on those who utilize available tools to reduce the predatory nature of our system is insane.

          My employer is pushing AI usage, if the work is done the work is done. This is the reality we’re supposed to be living in with AI, just conforming to the current predatory system because “AI bad” actively harms more than it helps.

            The current predatory system will raise the limit on the 40 work week if they’re allowed to. 60. 80. You might not even get a weekend. Unions fought for your weekend.

            AI does not fundamentally change this relationship. It is the same predatory system.

      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.

      So cancer cell detection is now bad and those doing it should feel bad?

      The world isn’t black’n white.

              If it tries to be smart about that bad and good ai exists, then it’s a very poor take.

              It actually proves my point by showing that everything is not black and white (emg AI has lots of good uses, and also lots of medium uses and also bad uses).

              You also tried to put words in my mouth, that isn’t looking very smart instead of explaining what the metaphor was all about.

        Don’t be obtuse, you walnut. I’m obviously not equating medical technology with 12-fingered anime girls and plagiarism.
