Yeah we all hear the main arguments... AI is bad because of slop content, stealing from creators, brain rot & brain damage, privacy concerns and most importantly... how billionaires are just using it for their own selfish reasons

​But I'm asking about YOU 🫵 personally. The individual. What do you really think about AI? Do you care or are you indifferent? Has it actually affected your day to day life?

AI is like fire. It's a world-changing tool.

There are people that can't see past the danger of how it could burn them. There are people that can't see the potential in how it could be used productively.

There are people who are experimenting with it to try to find useful things to do with it, and there are people who are burning things down for shits and giggles, and most infuratingly of all there are people who can't tell the difference between those last two groups and feel the need to soapbox about it anyway.
