Depends on the use case.

  • AI that parses manuals, documentation and dumbs it down for me? Yes please.
  • AI that generates images? Eh, kinda undecided. I have seen really impressive AI videos, which I couldn't tell from real videography.
  • AI as a personal assistant? No, too much energy wasted on minor issues that could have been solved more efficiently. E.g: I have X at home, what could I make for dinner?
  • AI (not LLMs) in medical/scientific fields. Very intruiging. Yes. good shit.
  • AI in childrens toys. Eww. Burn it! Fecken burn it!!!

I think it can be a great tool, but it is overvalued atm, and there are AI images anywhere which is really frustrating. When I go to pinterest, I want to see human input. When I check my LinkedIn everyone and their cat is using AI graphics - I get it, it's quick and easy, but such a waste of energy.

If we want to keep using AI, we need to reduce the quantity in which we use it and it's resource consumption.
