These clankers and AI Glazers tend to have dark personality traits. I am not surprised that they are so callous and cruel towards people just to glaze their latest golden calf (which will fail, as it is so very hated). How very heartless of them, unsurprisingly they have a paid blue check mark on a fascist site.

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.

This is a bad person even outside of the Ai context.
"I get a dopamine hit from emotionally disturbing other people"
this is a bad person.
They got a blue check on twitter, is it any wonder they are a trash person?
Just to weigh in here- as an autistic person myself one of the things I love about computers is how predictable and repeatable they are. Yes, I know that bit flipping and memory errors exist, but compared to human brains computers are consistent and beautiful. I largely try to model my own mind on how computers work.
I find AI to be absolutely disgusting for how it violates this. All of the other issues are important but solvable (the economic and social impact, the environmental impact, copyright issues, safety guardrails, etc). Like, I dont expect any of then to be fully solved but I could imagine a world where they are mostly solved. They are technical and legal challenges. Renewable energy infrastructure, universal basic income, reverting copyright law to pre-Disney levels, and a bit of responsible stewardship could do wonders (though I dont expect any of that to actually happen). The core concept of making computers less certain is not solvable, but a fundamental aspect of the design that I find abhorrent.
Finally someone who says it
I never got the point of asking an unreliable non deterministic model to write code for you when programming languages are literally right there, they almost always do exactly what you write
And there's plenty of deterministic ways to do code assistance too
thst must be a 4chan transplant
I feel like 4chan moved over to twiter or at least they use both sites
Ai bros, are factually the dumbest people to ever live
Bold move to still consider them people.
Didn't know autist=psychopath /s
Leave the autism out of this, AI Bros are narcissists, whether they have autism or not isn't really relevant.

Yeah. "Autistic" does not and should not imply "ethically stunted". I am autistic. Of course I am driven to solve problems. The drive to solve any particular problem, however, is greatly reduced when a large group of people whom I consider peers band together and state as loudly as they possibly can that they do not want it to be solved. Anyone who endeavors to solve such a problem anyway should re-evaluate their life choices and consider whether their clearly impressive talents could be put to better use.
Sincerely, an autistic programmer who can't draw for shit but still hates genAI with a passion.
In some respects, yes. A number of autistic adults describe an almost visceral discomfort with dishonesty, favoritism, or bent rules, the kind of thing many neurotypical people shrug off as “just how things work.” That’s not a quirk. It shows up repeatedly in research on moral rigidity and rule adherence in autism.
The pattern seems to trace back to how autistic cognition handles consistency. Where a neurotypical brain might flex a rule depending on who’s involved or what’s socially convenient, an autistic brain is more likely to apply the same standard everywhere, to everyone, every time. This is explored in depth in relation to moral rigidity and its connection to a strong sense of right and wrong often seen in autism.
Man I wish I saw this clear, easy to understand comment like two months ago when I was trying to exlain something in here. Failed, downvoted, aye.
Good summary.
Yeah, it immediately came to my attention.... because one of the most devastating career effects of autism is not being to able to go-along-to-get-along, which, at least for me, is largely an ethical thing. It's dishonest for me to pretend to care about you just because you are my co-worker or my boss.
I mean, I'm polite and courteous and am there for people when I feel there is a need, but the constant ball-fondling of the NTs has me at great social disadvantage.
Came to say this. Leave autism out of this. You can be a narcissist asshole without being autistic. And techbros are just narcissist assholes, autistic or not.
I can code, but I'm still not gonna use that to compensate my inadequacy at things other people can do well. I'd rather contact an artist for a commission than have the Plagiarism Machine produce it.
(I'd also rather not contact strangers with personal requests, because I'm worried I'd come across as overly obsessive with details to the point of cramping their style and I don't want to make strangers uncomfortable, so the odds lf me ever commissioning art are about the odds of me making friends with someone who happens to produce art in a style I like, but that's beside the point. "No art" is still better than "stolen art soup".)
I mean, if you are worried about that, just let them know upfront you are autistic and get hung up on weird details - they will either be understanding, or turn down your request.
That is a perfectly reasonable way to deal with this issue that I never thought of.
Now I can shift my anxiety to how people will react if I tell them I'm autistic, but frankly, looking at the communities I tend to gravitate towards, odds are they're more likely to ask about my hyperfocus than take issue.
Thanks for breaking me out of the trap of perspective!
This makes me wonder why we haven't yet seen an AI bro beaten into a bloody pulp for being an AI bro. The artist community sure has a lot of patience.
I’m a pro artist and AI is helping me quite a bit. People bring slop to me same i make the real thing. This is so much more helpful than people bringing crudely drawn images or trying to describe with words.
It’s not going to hurt artists unless your art is fairly low value (oh boy can’t wait for the complaining about my experience).
Low value art is mostly digital art. Sorry to say. Learn to paint and you’ll be fine.
Yeah, the answer is that most of the creative community is a bunch of tolerant lefties. Not exactly a group prone to random extreme violence.
I also don't expect they hangout at the same coffee shop.
I like it when they don't consent.
The same autist will then frothing from their mouth when someone steal their approach and then limelight.
Twitter being Twitter once again
