This what happens when fucking weirdos who have never talked to other people are in charge of tech. they come up with something that can’t talk like a person and is always wrong and they are super impressed with it because it’s the closest they come to socializing.

I don’t want anything to do with AI. I disabled it everywhere. Yet, you keep shoving it down my throat. The more you do that, the less I want to interact with it. Toss more AI on me, and I’ll look to disable it.

Haha, AI hallucinations seem to be infectious.

I switched to Mac in 2022 because I was so pissed off that Windows was forcing me to upgrade my hardware to upgrade to windows 11. But this is a mess. At least Apple doesn’t force AI down your throat

No matter how “cool” it is its primary purpose, first and foremost, is to generate spam. A trillion dollar industry, effectively, in the service of spamming our search results, inboxes, text messages, science journals, homework assignments, and so much more

AI is becoming impressive. But that doesn’t mean I agreed to let companies steal my data and art to train it.

LLMs are cool up to a point. It is pretty neat to see something imitate human speech so convincingly. But that’s it: neat. Like a phone shaped like a hamburger.

For me to be impressed beyond that, your thing needs to either do something that I can’t do better or do something i don’t want to do. I can write a pretty good grade 8 essay. I can summarize a paragraph. I can write a dirty limerick. I can complete my own sentence without punctuation suggestions.

When I want to create something, I want to do it myself. Putting my ideas in order and finding the words to say something meaningful is the fun part. Even when I write a work email or a cover letter, I’m not really interested in help. Either I have something to say (don’t want help), or I rattle it off in one go (don’t need help).

Microsoft, I don’t owe you my attention or my money. Make something useful that doesn’t suck. Impress me.

Because it’s just an inference machine. That’s impressive on its own but you fuckers keep pretending it is intelligent. It’s not. It’s a toddler with an enormous vocabulary and shareholders.

I’m amazed by AI and what it can do, compared to what computers could do in the past. Its truly astonishing at how far we’ve come and we can marvel at the capabilities.

I still dont want to use it though. It’s not reliable enough for what I would actually use it for, and if I had a job that could make use of it, I’d be counting down the days until it puts me out on the street.

There is being Impressed by something and seeing any sort of real utility for it, the former doesn’t guarantee the latter.

This guy appears to be a bit of a dullard.

I was just thinking about this yesterday. AI has not helped me in any way shape or form. I don’t need it, i don’t want it, and it should NOT be forced onto people.

I grew up teaching myself how to research and use Ask Jeeves, Yahoo!, AOL, and now Google, Duck Duck Go. I don’t need a dumb AI to tell me what i can find myself.

For some reason it is not mindblowing to me that the Microsoft AI CEO is astronomically out of touch with normal people.

I think it is probably the behavior of Microsoft as a company that makes me feel that way.

Fuck AI. I don’t want it.
