When I say to an 'Ai-enthusiast' that we should shut down all genAi softwares and data centers, they react like I try to take away Oxygen from them. Darlings, 10 year ago genAi were nowhere and you still could manage to do things. You know with your cognitive functions.

A digital picture of an oracle card, that looks like it stands on a wood table, and the background is gray and cloudy. In the top right and bottom left corner there is an illustration, that looks like some dried flower branch. It's the same in both corner, just mirrored. In the middle there is an anvil. On the top it says erőfeszítés. On the bottom it says effort.

If "Ai is inevitable, and it's the future and it's already an inseparable part of our life" and bla bla bla... Then why are genAi-bros and their bootlickers so desperate to convince us to use it?

Someone tried to defend the use is genAi by saying that because many people rely on it for translating things written on languages they didn't speek, if you against genAi you're not protecting people (making social justice), you make the exact opposite of it. That's just bullshit and guilt-trip. ⤵️

There's something rather liberating about discovering that you can change your mind. You haven't necessarily failed, contradicted your entire existence or betrayed your former self. Perhaps you've learned something new. We're allowed to update our thinking. Even witches. 😂

A little excerpt from my discussion today. Me: Dancing is a free 'genre'. You can do whatever you like, dance however you want, on any kind of music you want, or wothout any music at all. Them: But on waltz music you waltz. Me: Why? And who the f will stop me if I simply just shake my ass?

We try to pretend otherwise, but the truth is that knowledge can't be closed off. We can try to hinder the access to it for others (many times successfully). But all knowledge stems from the interaction of the simple fact of existence itself and the aspiration to find the answer to "why?".
