This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yes AI has good uses, it made my job faster, I can now focus on more important things because I'm not wasting time with bullshit that AI can do in a seccond.
But you can't say that on Lemmy, here it's all useless, a scam and gave my dog AIDS.
A lot of people here on Lemmy keeps saying that AI is bad because it failed one task it wasn’t built for. Or because it can’t do everything. I don’t get it.
maybe go for a "its bad because of the return on investment" angle? for the amount of literal billions we have thrown at it, perhaps its ok to expect more. if you gave me a mere couple of billion, i'd make healthy lunches for school kids to foster education and health outcomes (2-4-1!)
How many billions (in today's money) were spent on going to the moon? What about the billions poured into refining the internal combustion engine? The billions that have gone into making and running massive particle accelerators?
Technology is constantly advancing and we often don't know where it'll take us until we get there.
