Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Hate to tell you but you're the only one thinking that. The average consumer could not care less.

[–] morphballganon@mtgzone.com 14 points 7 months ago (2 children)

That's hyperbole. Perhaps the majority of consumers don't care, but some do.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It's not hyperbole. I said "the average consumer", not "all consumers".

Probably referring to "you're the only one thinking that." There's at least two of us :p

But yeah, probably not most

[–] Glytch@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

At least three

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 3 points 7 months ago

Oh. In that case, yes.

In my anecdotal experience which is of course the most solid and accurate (/s) people I’ve talked to within my circles do care just not enough to do anything. Pretty much along the lines, “of AI, weird, anyways”

[–] Gigasser@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The average consumer cares about the quality of a product as well as how affordable it is. AI...I dunno, it doesn't really make a product "look" better if it's ads or packaging or what have you, have a "meh" AI art vibe. AI art, because of its ease of generation, is vast becoming a sign of genericness.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org -2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The average consumer couldn't pick out AI generated marketing anyway

[–] Gigasser@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Depends on your target demographic I guess. Younger consumers will notice, older ones not so much.

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Why is that a good argument? The comic doesn't say "all people will think like this" or even imply it.

Don't know what that link is but it's staying blue unless you want to tell me what's behind it.

[–] ThefuzzyFurryComrade@pawb.social 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It is a link to an academic journal.

Consequently, this study suggests that using the term “Artificial Intelligence” in marketing campaigns and product descriptions may negatively impact consumer demand.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 0 points 7 months ago

The OP is not about using AI terminology in marketing campaigns, it's about using AI imagery.
