Does anyone hate how many people are apparently immediately turning to ai.

    People were already trusting anything and everything without batting an eye. LLMs are just the natural continuation of that.

    Yes.

    People are so hypocritical about it. "I'm scared AI might take my job." Then 5 seconds later they're asking google AI the answer to really simple questions.

    I'm so sick and tired of hearing my friend talk to gemini and alexa(google and amazon ais).

    On the one hand, I think people immediately saying that are mostly being silly, but in the other hand that is a joke for a reason and could be mocking these people. Who knows?

    In my experience, it's the opposite. People start by saying this sort of thing ironically, and then a large subset of people who don't get the jokes, or any jokes, start doing it seriously. See: The flat earth society, bronies, fetch.

    I mean subject matter expert at work. I've had multiple times where I told somebody the answer to something. Going to have them paste their question and the response from AI in the chat after... 'confirming' what I said.

    And here we are, 30 years later. Google owns the world and is tracking everyone so they can sell their data to advertisers on an increasingly enshittified internet. While pushing increasingly resource intensive, useless LLMs.

    Not sure what point you were trying to make.

    My point is life changes, the world changes, society changes and every time that a big change happens there are people who adapt and people who see it as a catastrophe and try to fight it back. But you can't fight change you can only adapt.

    AI isn't the end of the world, it's just a tool.
