"I even wrote an app for it so that I could integrate my music like list from YouTube music so the AI would understand what music I like. I believed that music somehow communicates feeling that words cannot and perhaps the model would be able to intuit this from its training data."

Psychosis. You had or have psychosis.

barf.

i mean at least they mention how annoying it is to have that one "friend" that uploads all their chats to an ai.

i really wish people addicted to using ai would realise that people aren't saying they can't use it at all; it's just most of us prefer there to be a human involved in an interaction even if whatever the end result is flawed or less accurate.

there's also the issue in that while an ai can theoretically help someone do more than they could otherwise that whenever it either stops working or becomes too expensive to use then everyone else relying on you and/or whatever you produced with it are all left up shit creek without a paddle

and there is nothing more infuriating then getting 80% of a job done only to find everything coming to a screeching halt because the person armed with an AI can't do that last 10-20% because they were never qualified to do it in the first place.

abandoned github projects

unknowable pull requests where the person just evaporates upon basic questioning quotas being hit and finding yourself having to wait 1-3 weeks only for it all to be rewritten because they changed AI/LLMs from -- not using real names -- BananaEgg 14.29 to Caludia v6.3 and can't get the new one to pick up from where the old one left off without it rewriting it all

and then -- consequently -- hitting said aforementioned quota limit and slowing everything and everyone down AGAIN.

so doing that to friends? the people who care about you as a person? that's messed up or, hell; that's just... mental illness.

imagine how rude it is to just dump 400 commits into a project/tool using an AI and then spamming hn or reddit with links to it all while promising the world to those who come across it...

and now imagine doing that to your friendships?

yeah. i just. guh. the ai is supposed to be there to get the stuff done that's supposed to be less fun. why would you use it for the entertaining parts of your life?

> If one of your friends is using an AI assistant it is very likely they are uploading your entire chat history to the AI assistant without telling you.

If I learned that a friend was doing this, I'd have no choice but to stop interacting with them electronically. And maybe go no-contact entirely. That level of trust betrayal would be hard to get over.

> I found that I was spending too much time talking to my AI agent and not enough time thinking my own thoughts and talking to my friends

Sounds like some sort of addiction. If the AI were saving time, you would have more time for a social life, not having that time stolen away.

Humans are designed to forget this stuff.

And humans are designed to exploit that forgetfulness in others.
