    He’s made the World wake up to the fact that they can’t trust the US, so that can be seen as good?

    AI isn’t that black and white, just like any big technology it can be used for good or bad.

    Just like Airplanes

      Good lord stop comparing LLMs to airplanes in your replies. This is why you think “AI bad” is an unserious statement.

        I used that comparison a total of two times (and might use it more), how about refute my argument instead of getting mad at me for using a good comparison twice.

        Airplanes emit SHITLOADS of carbon into the atmosphere, they have directly caused the death of tens of thousands of people. Airplanes are heavily used in war and to spy on people. Airplanes are literally used to spray pesticides and other chemicals into the air etc. They can mostly just be used by the rich etc.

        Just like with AI, there are many reasons airplanes are bad, that doesn’t mean we should get rid of them.

          A based point of view, Bravo, my dear. Do you know how rare that is? People in here love to think about themselves as free thinkers, when a lot of them are in reality, reactionary at best.

          Same for citing renting, landlords and Ai. They are disgustingly evil when used for profit, but they also have their uses. In another comment I’m sure will be downvoted to hell, if not outright buried, I mention the uses of GenAI for translation, text simplification, summarization and studying, yet people got the whole “AI=BAD” as a thought-terminating cliche.
