I'm not sure how that's true since we wouldn't be here in the first place without capitalism. Its the only known system efficient enough to get this far, that we know of anyway.
Nevertheless, going back to my original point.. Moving on to better technology only works once its feasible enough, no matter what the economic system is. Ideology doesn't negate the reality of resources.
And my point is that if you dismiss AI as a whole because of these criticisms, you're failing to see that AI can be used other ways.
But I'm not talking about you, I was responding to someone else.
It also doesn't take much of a big brain to realize you can do more with AI than to use it as a writer or as an ideation tool for writing, which is a bad way to use it.
Which goes back to my point that you need better critical thinking to criticize AI, because this ain't it.
My country has one of the best educations in the world. I was pretty decent in essays as well. But in no way did I particularly enjoy them. So idk what your point is.
A lot of people here just lack the critical thinking to properly critisize AI. Yes, AI is guilty of a lot of mediocre slop, it doesn't mean that AI as a whole is bad in every possible regard.
It's pretty common to be pro-AI or at least neutral about it. Lemmy seems to have an echo chamber of hating it as far as I can tell, so maybe it's just new people coming in?
but has it happened yet? if yes, then why are we still using american stuff? i just don't buy it.
here is an example: uber was very popular in europe, but they started twisting the knife with prices. alternatives popped up, uber is not so popular anymore.
I'd imagine american cloud services are actually cheaper (because they are so scaled up or whatever), that's why everyone uses them. So I don't know where the argument comes from that they are expensive.
