Probably, but given that AI is terrible in every other way as well, it doesn’t matter. And if will never get close enough to be worth it.
Even if every image was perfect and every reply was perfect, it still wouldn’t make it any good.
Given that capitalism exists, the better it gets at doing what it’s intended for, it makes the other problems far worse.
Right now the absolute best I can say for it (and even this is a huge stretch) is making some menial, non problematic tasks more convenient, and creating certain images easier (aka this post).
Actual AI (not this garbage generative kind like GPT) can be helpful for accessibility that assists people with disabilities, or translation.
But literally everything about the common ones typically discussed is 100% bad.
Hallucinations (just being fucking wrong (remember glue on pizza? Or 2 Rs in strawberry?))
Used by students to cheat assignments
Making the absolute worst people super rich
Messing up industrial economies (computer part prices going through the roof)
Making companies replacing employees with AI will help their bottom line.
The data centers used to run them are absolute garbage to have around, making power and water supplies dwindle and jacking up the prices, making the area noisy af and warmer- all of them can be morally (even if not legally) be destroyed, no matter how much it costs the owners (the more it costs them, the better), totally guilt free (again, moral guilt, not legal guilt)
Technology using it is bad for everyone (Flock cameras, facial recognition).
People relying on it to act as a “chat partner”, worsening emotional problems, with potential behavioral problems stemming from it, or it giving advice to harm themselves.
EVEN IF there are tiny benefits, none of them outweigh even a single problem, much less all of it. And the more it improves, the bigger a problem it becomes, until capitalism ends to take profit out of the list of motivations for it.
It’s also being used to write code, so it’s causing actual damage to software development, too.
Another thing, the better it becomes at everything, the less it seems worthwhile for people to get into any of the fields it’s replacing, and since skilled human output will always be better than AI output, the reasons are pretty obvious.
I’m a perfect world, making a bear perfect AI would free people up to pursue their own passions with more time to dedicate to them. But this can never happen under capitalism, ever. And seeing that no one alive’s descendants down to 10 generations loving to see are likely to see even a glimpse of that possibility starting to change, then it should be completely and entirely scrapped and banned until such time that it becomes even a potential possiblity of any actual benefit at ALL.
Nope. Straight up total shutdown. Nothing else can even begin to happen until that’s squared away.
All current models and training data should be purged completely, to be restarted with it’s revival. But with proper guardrails.
People need to stop shrugging at the current theft and just accepting it, and force a total purge (and have it proven, right down to the secret corners of all people in charge’s private drives) of ALL current data (even data they were permitted to have).
They were let out on the Internet quickly to avoid potential legal guardrails being put in place first, and they should honestly be in jail just for that. On top of new penalties on yet-to-be-written laws. Which normally shouldn’t be done, but when they’ve been involved in the biggest spy op ever even dreamed of, then fuck their protections. If they wanna complain they just have to step out of the waiting line and report to the nearest suicide booth, fucking cry about it otherwise.
If it’s the quality, then it may improve, right?

Should not then the point be on making AI come under state control and removing capitalist dominance on state and AI?
