No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Fundamentally yes, just on a different degree of magnitude as mentioned. Any time you automate processes you risk losing the knowledge of the way things were done before hand. With CGI this wasn't as such a big deal since it only affected things like movie and TV, but a lot was lost if you think about it, stop motion is all but dead, I guess no one knows how to do claymation anymore, I'm sure a lot of practical effects and stunt knowledge has been lost as well. Now, with AI we are replacing the sum of human knowledge. It's a hugely different scale. We are talking about replacing human cognition, which is actually a pretty radical proposal. (Not the good radical, imo.)
It's been about 20 years since the intro of the iPhone and most people are absolutely lost without their smart phone maps, because they have offloaded that part of their cognition to their phone. Now, imagine if they keep offloading other things, those faculties are not being used, your mind is not sharp because you are always deferring to something else. It will be interesting to see how things look after 20 years of AI usage, I guess, if we haven't been destroyed by it yet. (Joke, I don't think it would happen quite so fast, hopefully.)
I think the key is really the degree to which people rely on it. If it's the first go to for all the answers we're in trouble.
