I’ll keep it a buck; you are not going to beat people in the ‘marketplace of ideas’ re; the destructive nature of modern LLM systems as currently labelled ‘’‘AI’‘’. Until people get directly affected, they are rarely going to change their opinion based on what someone they don’t know says about the topic.
If people were that easily moved, we would’ve cut greenhouse has emissions decades ago, solved world hunger and poverty, etc. I vehemently support the notion that any system that redirects money from workers towards tech billionaires (in one way or another) is harmful, even if this is a bubble that will inevitably burst in the near future. But, ultimately, this is a debate that has been had on this forum several times by this point.
As I’ve said before, the biggest harm I see long-term is in the number of people that will invest the time, effort, and stress necessary to become a good artist, because generated art (even when it isn’t obvious ‘slop’) crowds-out mediocre art produced by artists that are still working on their skills and need commissions in order to avoid being stuck in whatever their day job would otherwise be.
Why? That just means they’re passionate about the topic.
