AI is bad because it is eating all the capital in the economy and suffocating everything else.

This is a bubble.

It reminds me more of the dot.com bubble than any other. I was in college but also working in the field then and saw that one come and go.

It’s like the dot.com bubble in that yes, there is a lot of “there” there, but there is also a ton of premature hype and speculation. What reminds me most of dot.com is how people are shoehorning AI into everything to ride the hype wave. During dot.com there were cases of boring companies adding .com to their name or opening an online division and seeing their stocks increase 10X in 24 hours.

Yeah. Right now the combination of high interest rates on my student loans (because the bubble has kept it artificially high) and career prospects make life bleak. It's not enough when the fed lowers rates a bump. All that gets eaten up by the bubble.

My main issue is that people assume that their AI generated slop is interesting.

You may generate whatever you want, but if I ask a question, I don't want an AI answer. If I did, I would have asked an AI.

If I look for an image, I do not want an AI image. If I did, I would have asked an AI.

If I look for information, research, papers, opinions, videos, audio, music, etc. I do not want an AI version. If I wanted that, I would have asked an AI.

AI isn’t inherently evil, it’s just a tool. the real problem is when companies use it to cheap out or replace people entirely. indie dev using AI to document a side project isn’t the villain, that’s just survival. the convo should be about power + intent, not blanket “AI bad” takes.
