Yeah we all hear the main arguments... AI is bad because of slop content, stealing from creators, brain rot & brain damage, privacy concerns and most importantly... how billionaires are just using it for their own selfish reasons

​But I'm asking about YOU 🫵 personally. The individual. What do you really think about AI? Do you care or are you indifferent? Has it actually affected your day to day life?

I am an AI Luddite. Perhaps it is just the libertarian versions being offered up and pushed by people who should be in jail, not running governments. They are stealing data; something that used to be labeled piracy. Most of the crap that I have contact with as a consumer is either useless, or downright bad for society as it stifles creativity and promotes the surveillance state. The fact that there is a movement to poison data collection tells me I am not alone.
