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.

    The heads of the AI companies have been saying how many jobs their products will replace.

    If you tell most people that there was an exciting new technology that would replace them at their company and every other company and make their experience and qualifications obsolete I’m guessing most people wouldn’t be very happy about that.
