a few real harms:
- massively inefficient use of energy, water and other resources at a time we really need to address climate crisis
- ai 'slop' with myriad mistakes and biases performing a mass DDOS on people trying to learn things and know what's true
- moving resources away from actually producing factual and original content
- sodality2 2y agoThank you, these are mostly extremely valid complaints. I hope with time these come to be inefficiencies that can be moved past (AI models turn into local-first energy efficient tools, becomes more intelligent at summarization). Right now though, wholeheartedly agree. The last one seems to be irrelevant for this specific use case - the content is produced, it's put into an easier to digest format. No one thought sparknotes would kill books.
