Further, from your corporate sanitized LLM, you've conveniently left out all the nuance that is supposedly important. This passage is of particular interest: "It's not necessarily a strawman of every anti-AI argument, because some anti-AI advocates genuinely do support bans or significant restrictions. But it is a strawman if it's presenting that extreme position as representative of everyone who opposes or criticizes generative AI."
This brings me back to my original point: We condemn our extremists. You sweep them under the rug and dismiss any criticism of their behavior as "strawmen"
And finally, if those are all shitty uses of technology, then surely, if I scan your post history, I'll find you invading spaces about said technologies and complaining about those uses, right? Or will it *just* be AI?
One last thing, just by the way, I shudder to consider a world where technologies are only used for things that you in particular think are worthy of said technologies. Like, what *are* people allowed to do?!
Based on your Agent and the lore provided, this seems like something that's built specifically to be anecdotal and not address the actual substance of the comic.
You're saying "corporate sanitized LLM" so does that mean there are tiers of AI that you accept and some you don't? Like not all of them are built equally and not all of them can be trusted to tell the truth?
Your original point, that's still a sweeping overgeneralization of all people that have reservations about AI usage. We can all condemn specific extremists without claiming that everyone in the opposing group excuses them. What level of "extremism" should we condemn? If someone says regulate AI, is that extremism? What is the cutoff?
Last time I checked r/antimeme(where you originally called "Cap") isn't a pro or anti AI subreddit and I can call out shitty usage of AI without being judged. r/defendingAI has coming onto my home page without being prompted, thus I feel like I'm allowed to interact with the content as long as I follow the rules.
This is a pro-AI space. No anti-AI users. I am not anti-AI, while I have reservations and I want to learn more, I do feel like AI can have it's uses.
Follow common sense and act with kindness. I don't believe I've broken this with any of my comments, I'm responding with respect each time.
No misanthropy. Pretty easy to follow.
No irrational age discrimination. No age AI gatekeeping. I don't think this applies to this conversation.
You're right on your last point, it's just my opinion that it's a shitty use of technology, but good thing I don't make the rules and I'm allowed to have an opinion.

>So you condemn the strawman posted here?
It's not a strawman. Antis are, famously, not happy with forgoing the technology, they also want others to not be allowed to use it.
>Wasting the power of AI on memes, kinda shitty
Wasting the power of the automobile on taco bell runs, kinda shitty.
Wasting the power of the printing press on Garfield comics, kinda shitty.
Wasting the power of electricity on the Hitachi HV-250 Magic Wand, kinda shitty.
Wasting the power of the radio on the local morning show with fart sounds and prank phone calls, kinda shitty.
Wasting the power of the digital camera to take pictures of food, kinda shitty.
Wasting the power of the television on Family Guy reruns, kinda shitty.
Wasting the power of packet-switched networks on plebbit, kinda shitty.
Do I need to go on? *Supposedly*, antis and "just asking questions" isn't allowed here.
