"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I miss those days when we were encouraged to learn new things, improve, and expand your brain (lemmy.today)

And now the narrative has shifted to doing things fast without understanding. Otherwise you'll be antiquated and outclassed.

It is true. I feel left behind—like I don't belong in a world infested with ai slop.

What if the are certain chapters you don't understand? Can you ask the book to clarify?

What if the author's writing style puts you to sleep? You love the subject matter but cant get through the way the material is presented.

Let's be fair. You can ask online or search for answers. You can buy or borrow a different book. But then your progress is stalled while you wait for a response or the library to open.

You can still do all these things. What's wrong with having another tool to supplement? Do we raise our noses at YouTube tutorials and lectures and audiobooks the same way?

Sometimes, going “full speed” isn’t the answer either. Sometimes people need to sleep on it, and come back later.

This is what I meant with not getting a “quick dose of dopamine”.

Our brains are not designed for that. Even if you only use AI to “learn”, the massive influx of information would condition the human brain for input speed, not reflection, which incidentally is the most important part of learning anything.
