This is different. AI is not a "personal computer" or a "digital camera". AI is a change in perspective of our entire society, how it works, and what we define to be human or human-made creation. The end goal of AI is to abolish all work possible. In a world where there is no work for the common man, I'm afraid to imagine what is left there.

There are two things you're mixing here.

One is how others use AI, the other is how you use AI. No one forcing you to consume content made by AI that you think suck, just turn it off if you don't like it.

Seems really doomsday-like to proclaim "The end goal of AI is to abolish all work possible" when that's not realistically feasible, regardless of what the AI-hypers say. Don't listen so much, and think more.

    How? Or do you mean, like, stop using the Internet entirely?

    • Notice that it's bad/slop/shit, turn it off, do something else.

      If you don't notice it, then is it really an issue? And if you notice, you're one click/keypress away from making it disappear.
