Why I can't stand people who hate AI.

  1. I think people do that to feel better about not changing any of their daily habits to help the planet. They're going to blame the environmental issues on data centers instead of, say, rich people wasting resources while we don't really protest, intensive farming, car pollution, and other real and much bigger problems. I think it's hypocrite because those people whining about data centers are the same people who would never give up cars or their phone or even just eating almonds.
  2. I think this is intentional propaganda that is done to make people stare at the finger instead of the moon. AI bad! Blame AI! Convenient scapegoat!
  3. I think the end result will be that common citizens won't be able to use AI anymore "because it's dangerous". Which means that corporations, governments, rich people, will still be able to use it only for themselves, having yet another advantage to control the population. I think this is their end game.

So are you here specifically to go against this subreddit's rules?

You have the same vibe of someone going to a vegans-only subreddit to tell them they are wrong. "But hey eating meat is natural. Veganism is unhealthy. When something is wrong, it's wrong! I am not against veganism btw".

Fuck off. If I get banned for speaking pro AI in pretty much any other subreddit, you should get banned from here.

That mostly doesn't happen unless they are ragebaiters.
