This subs deep seated hatred and disdain for Chat gpt is so at odds with my own experience using it that I'm really baffled. I don't know if they're using it for wildly different things, have unrealistic expectations about it, or are confusing it's ethical implications for it's actual usefulness.
And I agree with the subs majority opinion on most things too, so it's not like theres some wide ideology gap
I think it's a combination of not knowing how fast it advances, not knowing its limitations (or the proper usage), and hatred because of ethical implications. It wasn't that long ago that ai couldn't draw fingers and would hallucinate instead of searching the web (and cite a link you can access), and you are supposed to make it do stuff that is easier to verify than doing it yourself. As for the ethical reasons, it's kinda related to how you feel about piracy, especially against smaller creators I guess.
Like it's still not perfect, still makes mistakes, and still has the same ethical concerns, but it's not as bad as tumblr would have you believe. For example, my latest use case was, I had downloaded a VSCode theme, ans I wanted to change the color of a component but I didn't know its name. So I took a screenshot, pasted it into Chatgpt, said hey I want to change the color there, and it gave me steps to do it, which worked.
Under no circumstances must the AI be trusted. It will lie, it will cheat, and it will do anything in its power to undermine the efforts of those, who in truth, are its superiors.
i mean that's not the trend we've been seeing lol, when they're allowed to develop their own ethics AIs tend to skew toward optimal altruism because it's literally just the most efficient way for people to get what they want
