Why do the vast majority of people on Lemmy seem to HATE AI? (lemmy.zip)

I’ve been on Lemmy for about 2 weeks now, and I’ve noticed a trend:

The VAST majority of posts that mention AI in any manner are some dig or criticism or some other negative commentary, and the rare ones that have anything positive to say about it almost always have negative whatever-Lemmy’s-version-of-karma-is.

I get that AI isn’t without its problems, especially Grok with that “Mechahitler” nonsense a bit ago, but there seems to be particular vitriol here. I’m genuinely curious to know why people hate it so much here.

Because it's built on the creative collective works of everything that's ever been put on the Internet with no attribution or compensation for people who's authored works were stolen. Maybe that's why?

I don't see why that's an issue. Creatives won't even have to make anything creative anymore, AI can just be used to make things the they would have. That will save them so much time, enough that they can go do cheap labor for 18 hours of the day, like a good slave.
