AI is fantastic.
It's what it's being used for that fucking sucks.
I love reading about shit like "LLMs help scientists develop new pattern-seeking behaviors and theories" and shit. Fucking hate when I see AI art or places trying to 'streamline' their processes with half-assed AI assistance.
This. I was a phd seeking cybersecurity researcher leaning heavily into AI up until last year, and it bothered me to no end that some of the most promising technology I have ever seen was being primarily used to enhance the police state or increase BP profits by a few %. AI is literally a step towards a utopian post scarcity future, but instead of being used that way it was immediately weaponized against the working class for the benefit of the parasite class.
I don't understand what this has to do with a PhD in cyber security but I do agree with what you said though
It gives people context for what kind of ai math I'm familiar with/formed my opinions about ai on (ie, generally lightweight transformer models rather than LLMs), as well as a small logos appeal of "hey I spent years of my life researching that shit, I at least kinda know what I'm talking about"
