AI hesitancy: manton.org
@manton oh man, do I have a long (and probably grumpy) discussion about the “Oh no, AI!” wagon. As you say, AI shit is real, but the immediate reaction many have, well, let’s just say it reminds me of other familiar patterns.
I noticed how you were super careful in your latest clip about AI and trying to assure everyone that MB is not being sold to the AI devil and I was wondering if I should mention it… well, here you go.
@manton I think you are right that modern AI will be more than a fad or some problematic technology that comes and goes. I’m really curious to see how models that are capable of running on-device advance and what becomes possible in that space. I feel part of the negative vibes around AI/LLMs is due to OpenAI. I can’t say that I really trust them. The ethics of slurping up the web and all the content they could get their hands on is murky. But, I think those problems with the way OpenAI is operating, not necessarily flaws that apply to the technology in general.
