This article has been flagged on HN for being clickbait garbage.

It is clearly no sense. But it satisfies the irrational needs of the masses to hate on AI.

Tbf I have no idea why. Why do people hate a extremely clever family of mathematical methods, which highlights the brilliance of human minds. But here we are. Casually shitting on one of the highest peak humanity has ever reached

It seems to be a common thing. I gave up on /r/futurology and /r/technology over on Reddit long ago because it was filled with an endless stream of links to cool new things with comment sections filled with nothing but negativity about those cool new things. Even /r/singularity is drifting that way. And so it is here on the Fediverse too, the various "technology" communities are attracting a similar userbase.

Sure, not everything pans out. But that's no excuse for making all of these communities into reflections of /r/nothingeverhappens. Technology does change, sometimes in revolutionary ways. It'd be nice if there was a community that was more upbeat about that.

Because it's just the same as autocomplete on your phone lol so whatevs.

People are scared because it will make consolidation of power much easier, and make many of the comfyer jobs irrelevant. You can't strike for better wages when your employer is already trying to get rid of you.

The idealist solution is UBI but that will never work in a country where corporations have a stranglehold on the means of production.

Hunger shouldn't be a problem in a world where we produce more food with less labor than anytime in history, but it still is, because everything must have a monetary value, and not everyone can pay enough to be worth feeding.

I agree with this. People should fight to democratize AI, public model, public data, public fair research. And should fight misuse of it from business schools' type of guys.

I probably sound like I hate it, but I'm just giving my annual "this new tech isn't the miracle it's being sold as" warning, before I go back to charging folks good money to clean up the mess they made going "all in" on the last one.
