Dell's CES 2026 chat was the most pleasingly un-AI briefing I've had in maybe 5 years

People on Lemmy hate AI. People who have even a modicum of knowledge about AI hate AI.

Get outside your echo chamber and 90% just blindly accept AI. They make images with it. They use AI search results as “research”. They quote AI results.

It’s the blind 90% they cater to. Not us.

    I’d say 90% is pretty high.

    My sample size of “a few people not on Lemmy or Reddit” hate AI shoved in their faces. They may use ChatGPT some, or Copilot at work because they have to, but that’s it. They are interested in that AI specifically, not their fridge generating body horror on demand.

    I"ve had my uncle, complete luddite, ask me how to get his computer to stop bothering him about AI because "I don't understand it."

    Interesting. I imagine some people (especially older folks) might find it a bit spooky. So human, but also not? How to make sense of it? It’s like the uncanny valley of technology, and I wouldn’t be surprised if people who weren’t raised with tech find it particularly unsettling.

    Id say its probbaly more like 95% lol.

    Most humans are idiots with computers, just how it is.

    IDK I'm hopeful. My 55 year old co-worker who's basically tech illiterate loudly explained "OMG more AI bullshit, get this crap off my screen!" The other day when copilot popped up in her Outlook.
