Some of it for me at least is moral. They stole all our data to create this shit and are selling it back to us, it’s destroying the planet and communities near these stupid data centers, it’s constantly being used and pushed to further human suffering, surveillance, pricing, war and death etc. I really want no part in it, but that’s becoming increasingly difficult.
Then on top of that, it hallucinates and lies. Chances for bugs or things getting snuck in increase. Since people didn’t write the code, they don’t understand it, so maintainability goes down.
This is called a “self correcting problem”. If it doesn’t work people will correct by either “not using it” or “learning to use it more effectively”.
Do you think everyone is just going to throw their hands up and be like “well the ai done fucked up again, what’re you gonna do?”
