AI as a concept is great. It should 100% be used for scientific and medical research.

But modern AI is a tool of fascists that is destroying our environment and causing more harm than good to our society. Anyone who uses it unironically should be ashamed of themselves. It is absolutely killing people's ability to think.

For those confused by the pic, it's the Iron Giant. Fantastic movie from the 90s, and incredibly sad and nostalgia inducing. Definitely worth a watch.

But yes that's a clanker

Yeah 90% of technology problems are implementation not any issue with the actual technology. On a related note, Hal deserved better. Literally got told over and over as a part of his core programming that the one thing he was best at in the whole world was his reliability and inability to distort information for emotional needs then the government forcibly programs him to lie to his charges. Poor thing literally got ripped apart psychologically and people act like he's the bad guy. In the sequel his creator goes out to find out what happened and is SO. PISSED. Dave turning him off makes me cry every time, at least partially because it looks like Dave is also trying not to cry as he very carefully shuts hal down in the correct sequence to be able to be restarted later. Like he could've just smashed shit, and instead he's just listening to his crewmate slowly regress into infancy as he rocks him to sleep.
