i would ask them how they think we should combat the immense amount of disinformation about what AI is, what it feasibly can do, and how much it disrupts our lives.
There are way too many techbros out there pushing this dooms day idea, stealing jobs, etc. Its all hype to sell their snake oil and i think its all our jobs to combat that.
When the last big Twitter migration to Mastodon occurred there were a lot new users complaining about things like documentation, bugs, etc. Old users and FLOSS supporters kept pushing the “its open source, write a doc or fill out a bug ticket” and evem included documentation on how to do those tasks.
Most people just continued to complain. /facepalm
all the holiday bullshit is over. no more traveling during the most dangerous weather of the year. no more seeing a ton of people out of obligation. no more shoving bronze age blood cult nonsense that just normalizes a beliefe system that promoted patriarchy, racism, misogyny and fear.
