I said it before, and I’ll say it again - this is a scene from Idiocracy playing before our eyes, only the corporate morons were brainwashed into putting “AI is awesome!” in every sentence instead of “brought to you by Carl’s Junior”…

Brawndo AI - it has electrolytes!

Goddamned shameless ghoul, holy fucking shit. We’re really in full-on Idiocracy mode, only these morons feel like they have to mention AI in every single sentence instead of Carl’s Jr…

Amen to that: I want to play games made by people who like games, by people who play games, and by people who want to make games. Not by MBA suits who like money and just want to make more money…

How very corporate of them: people don’t want to do something? Screw finding out why, let’s make it mandatory and poof, problem solved!

I hope so, I genuinely do.

I think I’ve reason for this is that using LLMs is basically outsourcing all cognitive capacity to a machine, so the cognitive decline is comparatively bigger.

Does using a calculator cause a cognitive decline? Absolutely, but since you still need to know the order of operations (at least with simple calculators), how to interpret brackets and such, it’s comparatively small. Same with, say, a thesaurus. You do outsource a part of cognitive capacity used to learn big words, but still need to know grammar to string sentences together.

With ChatGPT though, you literally do almost nothing. Asking a simple question is all you need. This means your brain doesn’t need to work at all, and getting used to that means it’s harder and harder to make it work when you need it to…

It’s absolutely not okay, but since there will be no negative consequences for it whatsoever, it’s the new normal. This is sadly what happens when laws are not enforced, and I’m not sure if anything even can be done anymore…

Not sure if worst, but quite likely the stupidest. I’m no genius myself, but the amount of utter (and aggressive!) stupidity that surrounds us is so exhausting…

Because THAT’S the person that you look at and think “yup, that’s my role model, he’s awesome!”… What’s wrong with people, seriously…

Exactly - such labels would be ignored even more than the ones on cigarettes are, especially by the addicts. And it’s so much easier to completely hide them too - adblockers already hide a lot of content people don’t want to see, this would just become another line in the filter list so fast…
