Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

i was under the impression that were explicitly against genAI but i found that some people are actually VERY pro genai and quite dismissive of its risks. this happened on lemmy but i saw people getting downvoted for saying that genAI in its current state is harmful to the environment. i saw the old bullshit of how ”i use AI for art because i cant draw”, it was crazy. i called someone a Promptitute and someone unironically told me not to say that, just so much. so can everybody pls affirm you dont support that crap.

another user straight up admitted that they use AI as a friend and to gn to... i dont care how much we have in common ideologically, i cant support you gning to chatgpt and thinking its your friend...

I'm not going to dedicate months of my life to figure out how to SEO-optimize my resume. I am perfectly capable at realising when something is a waste of time better spent caring for my basil bushes.
I am not going to spend days carefully crafting each and every job application in order to get a chance at passing through the weird requirements there are around a piece of paper that really should be sufficient with "I am capable of doing the job, here are my credentials. I am pleasant to work with, contact my references. I would like to have the job." but for some reason needs a bull-load of fluff. I will definitely not do that when I know reading those applications have been outsourced to ~~LLMs~~ ~~neural networks~~ ~~programmes~~ AI for more than a decade.

Dismissing every usecase with "git gud lol" doesn't address the actual reasons people use AI
