This is pro-AI propaganda disguised by a headline people will share...

They don't talk about the real reasons people hate AI, just imply it's because everyone thinks they can't compete with it.

Reuters is doing this, because theyve invested hundreds of millions into AI:

If people realize it's bullshit, they lose that money. And maybe all their companies.

So they know "people don't like ai" headlines will get shared by people and make their propaganda reach more eyeballs and make more people feel like AI is inevitable and they should invest

C'mon people, we need to start paying attention to this shit

But I can't compete with AI. It takes me much longer to delete mission critical data through stupidity than it does for AI.

Not with that attitude...

A human can use a drill thru an AIs hard drive, I haven't seen any AI do that yet

You need to be more strategic in your deletions, friend. It's not a matter of how much you delete, but what you delete

At least in America, reading comprehension isn't very good

Are there any major news organizations that haven't made a deal with these so-called AI companies that we should start calling llms? Cuz they are not artificial intelligence, not by a long shot. The guardian made a deal with them. Obviously the New York Times that is cursed by both man and God has made a deal with them.
