Regardless, it also means hundreds of millions of people use it and other AI tools on a daily basis. They’re not all being forced to at gunpoint. Trying to pretend that the opinions of one’s own social circle are “everyone” and that people who disagree do not exist is not a persuasive argument for anything.
My point was that saying that “everyone hates this” and “nobody wants this” (what the shirt in the post says) is flatly untrue. Whether ChatGPT has a billion daily active users or 500 million weekly active users or whatever is just trivia that doesn’t really change the gist of what I’m saying. Lots and lots and lots of people really like AI tools and use them every single day. Ignoring that fact and pretending like everyone agrees with you is dumb.
Most people would take the statement as hyperbole. Also, the claim wasn’t against all AI use. It’s the shoving it everywhere that they say people hate. Even among those I know who use and like AI, they say it’s being shoved into things pretty arbitrarily and needlessly. Having it available to use is one thing. Ramming it down our throats is another.
I just want to give props to you. I totally get your point but even through the negativity you stayed polite and tried to get your point across. Thank you for making the fediverse a better place.
If it’s something like Google or Windows that’s suddenly started generating AI “answers” or whatever when you just use your computer as normal, does that get counted in those statistics?
I bet it does, and I bet it accounts for a huge percentage of it.
Those probably won’t be counted if the number is ChatGPT users rather than LLM or genAI users. They’re a whole separate bunch of obnoxiousness instead!

I don’t think it’s “regardless” at all.

Sam, please get off of the feddiverse, we don’t want AI here.
Yes how dare you challenge our opinions!
Ah yes, the other can’t-miss trick, “everyone who isn’t 100% on board with or mildly questions the hate train is a shill.”
Asking for less delusional anti-AI arguments isn’t AI boosting.

This is the fediverse, you can’t really expect people here to check their hate.
No, but a lot of them are being ordered to do so by their employer.
