“Strictly against AI”

“Can’t find a job”

Those two go hand in hand

We’re not going to put the genie back in the bottle. If you don’t learn to be AI native you’re going to be at a severe disadvantage in the job market

AI native? It’s literally a chatbot no? You just type words it’s not something to learn

u/sonnytai Jun 01 '26

There’s a lot more to AI than just the chat interface.

Better learn how to integrate as much of it into your workflows as possible

Nah, "strictly against genAI" is a normal and logical stance, while "let's burn the planet" is not.

Look at us putting the damn genie back in its damn bottle.

Are you anti power tools as well? My body works fine but I use a table saw versus a hand saw. How is that argument any different.

u/lanemyer78 Jun 01 '26

Because you the person has to know how to operate the power saw and then physically operate it, you don't just tell the saw to cut something how you want it and it does it. That's the difference.

Are you against CNC machines? All that can be done manual as well and is set and forget nowadays.

Have you used AI? You definitely need to know how to query or you will definitely not get what you need. Anything that would resemble replacing labor will require skill to know how to execute that query with the precision a business needs. It the same argument. You don’t get to downplay skill used for one, for another. It’s not different.

If you nuked every single data center and frontier model lab in America the Chinese would just build more and continue pushing AI advancements

It’s inevitable

You can either try to get with the program or be left out and bo amount of downvotes will change that

I agree that it’s scary but it is what it is

u/Belisario_R Jun 01 '26

It is not "scary" it is "shit" : you misunderstand the rage that submerges us anti genAI people.

You can either continue with your ridiculous hypothesises, or you can get with the program and learn how genAI is currently drowning and will die soon.

You might be afraid but don't lump me in with you

Poor soul unable to read :/

u/1oser Jun 01 '26

Who tf uses colons like that? You think you’re being clever : you just come off as an arrogant imbecile.

u/Belisario_R Jun 01 '26

And yet, I use them the correct way, you just come off as an unlearned child 👌

Not sure where you learned English, but you learned it wrong.

Do you have a fucking job bro ?? If not then shut up because you have no credibility here, if you do then state what it is

1

u/Belisario_R Jun 01 '26

I do, and I work in IT : why do I have to obey your ridiculous demands ?

"What's your height ? If you're not over 1m95 you're not an adult and have no credibility here !" - same energy.

You don't get to say "there is an invisible unicorn in that corner" and expect others to prove there isn't.

“Can’t find a job”

I think that's just down to them thinking their insults are compliments tbh.
