You know what would be absolutely dreamy right now, in the year of our Molyneux twenty twenty and a six?
Imagine if I could get to go a whole 24 hours, one whole Earth day, without having to give even the vaguest passing thought to someone else’s LLM use.
From 12am to 12am, on any given day (though ideally every single day), I do not find myself having to waste valuable thinking time on someone justifying why they’re going to continue using some ruinous tech, without having to waste a single second of valuable thinking time on who did use some ruinous tech, to not have to read a single disingenuous comment along the lines of “everybody is using it in secret” when like fuck they are, without someone feeling compelled to pass a blog post or a video past my eyes explaining why the ruinous tech is ruinous because it has been I don’t know how many years now and surely by now it should not need pointing out every single day how terrible this stuff is.
To never have to look at a fucked up picture that somebody got a machine to shit out, seemingly not caring that (or being completely oblivious to the fact that) it looks like absolute dogshit. To never have to contend with someone feeling compelled to dump an AI chatbot’s output in a forum or a comments section as though they’ve been reaching into the deepest font of human wisdom to source it and everyone must now clap. I’m not reading that, mate. Fuck off.
We don’t even speak of the joke images people generate. Just awful.
Picture it, an entire day where not a single second is given over to this utter trash.
What a beautiful fucking day that would be.
And I’d like a pony. A real one, not an AI generated one.
