i don't own a computer other than my work laptop, which I try my hardest to not use for personal business. i'm completely resisting AI, likely to the detriment of my job, which is forcing us to adopt it. I lie and tell people I use it. i find it completely soulless and I want nothing to do with it. it's output is shit and noticeable in like one minute. the partners want to adopt it on the one hand due to "efficiency" but they are all retarded and when they get in a room to discuss it you can tell they don't know what the future of it is. in personal matters, i cannot believe people consume AI generated "content." the RSF song was funny I'll give you that. It makes zero sense to me that lawyers would outsource the one thing that makes you valuable, your brain, to a machine, thereby hastening your obsolescence. i know i'll eventually be passed by an AI focused world. i just hope i'm old enough to be able to leave the workforce by the time it catches up to me. there are lots of people like me out there, mostly artists / not corporate drones. we'll be fine. f all of you

It's promising enough that you should keep tabs on it. It currently has real utility in briefing you on topics you don't know anything about, and in brainstorming/idea generation.

It's long-term significance remains to be seen and it'll all depend on how quickly it improves, including minimizing/eliminating those last few percentages of error in areas where 95% "accuracy" is useless, etc.

Unfortunately AI sits at the intersection of tech futurism and labor market disruption that absolutely FASCINATES midwits, so you really, really have to keep close track of which poasters made what lsat scores so you know who to read seriously and who to skip over in a thread.

i'll try to use it more for idea generation. that's a use case I can get behind.

but even there, in the same way I used Wikipedia when it first came out, i use search, my imagination, books, primary sources, etc. as a springboard. i don't think I'm losing that much by continuing to do it my way. but it's true that any tool that helps me think better is worth using.

as to the midwits, they're all just spinning in circles over the hype. they don't actually know what they're doing, as in all areas of life

There is no morality in powerlessness

Every technology is only a tool to be used as needed for your benefit

i don't like having things shoved down my throat. i'll always resist anything that becomes a buzzword

i find the people backing AI (e.g., Zuckerberg and the tech community generally) abhorrent for the most part and I am allowed to say that as I live and operate in the belly of the beast

AI generated content is garbage. i'm probably missing out by not using AI for idea generation

I find your position sympathetic but it's ultimately cowardly and harmful to yourself and those around you

One could say the same thing about computers or smartphones. And people do. But it would be foolish to abstain from using computers or smartphones - or AI - out of a (justified) sense of aesthetic disgust. All you are doing by abstaining from the responsible use of technology is making yourself weak and ultimately more vulnerable to the negative effects from that technology

I don't care about Law but I don't think AI-generated "art" and entertainment is going to be a disruptor. No one wants to watch something that nobody could be bothered to make. The studios will try it, and the backlash will be immense. They will Ruin their business and things will rewind is my prediction.

I think AI can replace a lot of the true garbage that exists in media. Go watch a low- (and even some mid-) budget movie from the 00s or teen (before the industry got wrecked by streaming) and you'll see some really fucking bad screenwriting--shit that'll make you correctly think "despite my lack of training or experience, I could sit down and write something better than this."

Same with the clickbait slop put out by a lot of new media outlets (think about all the crap we use to poast from jezebel/gawker/HuffPo/etc.). Yeah, *reporting* isn't replaceable by AI, but a lot of these warmed-over hot takes being pumped out by 108-IQ female Trinity grads maf at their lot in life can be replicated to perfection with AI.

Same in law: it is absolutely nowhere near good enough to write any motion I would file in any of my cases. But I have absolutely seen a significant amount of lawyer-created content that's worse than what AI does.

some things i find it useful for:

search (google is awful now as noted in another thread)

summarize articles, videos, books - huge time saver. in the same vein, it can teach the basics of pretty much anything, and is far better than digging around for decent resources

translator - much better than google, deepl
