I’m in a really odd position, in that I’ve always been a futurist and massive tech fan. I thought that I would be signing up for any AI tooling as soon as it appeared, chip in my head, bionic eye, the whole nine singularity yards.
What I’ve found instead is a disgust with the concept, the way it’s been implemented, the big tech arseholes at the top of the money grabbing companies that have driven it all to it’s current omnipresent position.
I want my AI, under my control and with my best interests at heart doing helpful things for me at my behest and control. It’s what I was promised in all those sci fi books, not this commercial pap.

I think “AI” is really insulting to people who want new interesting, innovative tech.
It’s the same ML algorithms we have had for decades repackaged under an LLM and sold as “Intelligence”
It’s marketing teams hyping up tech that has existed since the 90s in absence of real innovation.
