Oh come on my dude. Being a Luddite isn't going to help anyone. I'm not saying AI is a force for good, but it is a useful tool in the right hands. Like an axe or a shotgun.
Not taking a side in this thread, but you might wanna learn more about the Luddites. Their story is very relevant to today.
last a checked shotguns that explode in your hands aren't good for anything, and axes that don't cut are just hammers.
I'm not resistant to AI or LLMs.
I'm resistant to corporate interests ignoring laws to create a product that is being used to subjugate people.
there's a difference.
Surely you can understand why people assume you are, when you say unnuanced lines like: "AI is fascism. full stop." , "with AI, all roads lead to fascism."
show me a model that isn't based entirely off of one of the major AI companies.
