Emeritus Prof Christopher MayI've come to the conclusion that on balance the best way to deal with the 'problem' of artificial intelligence is to just say 'no'.Sure there are many focussed applications that will pay local/sectoral dividends, but the widespread use fo AI seems to me (at least) to be creating more difficulties than it solves....Call me a technophobe, but sometimes new technologies actually should not be part of our future!<a href="https://zirk.us/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/technophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#technophobia</a>

Thomas D. Embree 🇨🇦ChatGPT fear reminds me of the Wikipedia fear/skepticism when people started using that resource. The thought was "anybody can edit it, who knows if it's accurate". Now it is probably one of the most valuable information repositories in human history.<a href="https://me.dm/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Technology</a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/Technophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Technophobia</a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ChatGPT</a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#AI</a>

Thomas D. Embree 🇨🇦You know, people freak out about AI replacing human beings because they can perform tasks better. That is sort of like thinking that cameras would replace human painters when cameras were first invented.Like cameras, you still need a human being to operate an AI. There is also always going to be an appetite for non-AI products, just as there is still an appetite for painting despite the existence of camera technology. <a href="https://me.dm/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Technology</a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#AI</a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Art</a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/Technophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Technophobia</a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Photography</a>

SquirrelPeople should know that not everything said by AI is true, just like they should have known long before the age of AI that not everything said on the internet is true. People are upset that AI-generated stuff of dubious accuracy is replacing sweatshop-generated stuff that had an even lower accuracy.<a href="https://social.bau-ha.us/tags/technophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#technophobia</a> <a href="https://social.bau-ha.us/tags/ai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ai</a>

Tel AmielI'm looking forward to the day that teacher resistance to <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/edtech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#edtech</a> (now AI) won't be pitched as <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/technophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#technophobia</a> but an act of resistance to collective ignorance as to how these technologies are painted as essential for learning in the first place.
