People Are Increasingly Worried AI Will Make Daily Life Worse::A Pew survey finds that a majority of Americans are more concerned than excited about the impact of artificial intelligence—adding weight to calls for more regulation.

Every other technical innovation has made the average person’s life worse. Why would this one be any different?
I’m rather enjoying my electricity, my antibiotics, my vaccines against respiratory viruses, my access to unlimited information and pornography, My ability to drive cars that are pretty reliable, my ability to travel anywhere in the world at any time at doable prices, technology has treated us pretty well.
Yeah the real problem with AI is its still in its infancy and CEOs are firing people over it. Thats not a good look.

If only we could create a society that was not at the whims of the ultrawealthy. Unfortunately, many will pin the blame on the technology instead of those siccing it on their jobs. AI just is, LLMs do nothing on their own. If you lost your job to AI, a human made that decision as of right now.
Down with all kings but King Lud!
But for real opposition not to technology existing but to the effects it will have on society, especially skilled workers, and to the nature of who will benefit from that trade is the closest stance to the Luddites. They were skilled laborers who had a problem with being replaced by machines and unskilled laborers all for massive profits.

Adapt or die🤷🏿
Username checks out
I agree. I think tech progression has been mostly beneficial, but I could do without DRM and centralized social media.
You are on lemmy most likely posting it on a Linux device using Firefox.
I am not sure what to say except people continue to make the decision that they would like a bit of convenience and pay for it with money or data vs free as in free bear and deal with the lack of support.
I guess I could’ve made the cutoff like 100 years ago instead of infinite.
The aquaduct…
What have the Romans done for us lately
nice shoes and cars mostly
What an absurd thing to think.
Great counter argument lol.
I might as well argue that the sky is blue. There are countless ways technology has benefited humanity, it’s sort of ridiculous to say otherwise outside of some thought experiment.
It’s also an option to not say anything.
Gives advice, doesn’t listen to own advice. Nice.
I said that it was an option. Not that it was required.
Sorry, when someone says something ridiculous I can’t help but call it out. Call it a character flaw if you like.
Let’s take a moment to appreciate how ridiculous claim you’re making here.
Washing machine. Let’s hear how that made everyone’s life worse.
This is not true. You are living in a warm house and have fresh water and food and a lot of nice furniture. We don’t think about these things but that’s because they are default now.
That’s a lot of assumptions. Poor people don’t go on the internet?
No other innovation has been able to replace human creativity or general human thought. Computers came close but they required specialized knowledge to build AND to use so displaced workers had an opportunity to adapt and upskill.
Learn to code.
This isn’t really what happened or how the world works at large. It just made a bunch of rich dudes much richer, and west virginians a lot poorer. And yeah it changed the world in the broad scope of things yada yada thats besides the point 😉
I think in recent years a lot of “innovation” has been pure marketing fluff and had no real potential to change the world. This one really might. I’ve tempered my expectations, because tech bros really want us to believe there is magic to AI, but eventually it might actually change the world.
