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.

Does everyone hate it though? As much as I personally agree, I do not see the same sentiment bearing out in public sentiment. If an app that previously didn’t have an AI feature suddenly adds on, regardless of how arbitrary, I feel like people generally consider that an objective upgrade.
I’m curious what everyone else sees w/regard to public sentiment towards AI? Seems like it’s usually indifference or enthusiasm.
I agree in the sense that there are always people who will see “Now with X!” and interpret that as a selling point even if they have no idea what X is or what it does for the product. I would wager there are more people out there that couldn’t describe what part of the product is the “AI” than there are people who are genuinely enthused by what the AI is doing.
