I suppose this could make sense if you think about people worried about climate/ecosystem collapse, and the nuclear standoff before that, and maybe the rise of totalitarianism and mechanized warfare before that…

But that ignores the vast host of batshit doomsday prophets that were around long before and all throughout that part of history.

I’m sure enough people have told you to yeet her into the sun. I empathize if you decide you want to work this through with her. I have had issues like this with my own partner.

I found this video essay by Dr. Fatima helpful to empathize in my case. You agree on some of the fundamentals it seems. She has a habit and somewhat agrees that it’s bad. But due to stress or whatever reason she can’t kick it. So try to help her to work on this. It’s good to keep in mind that even half-measures can do lots of good. Maybe she isn’t super principaled in her AI abstention like you, but there’s a wide range between occasional indulgance and full-on dependency.

One seemingly small thing that reduced a lot of conflict for us was me replacing her search widget on her android. She kept quoting AI summaries from Google at me and I kept getting annoyed until I offered to help by changing it to DuckDuckGo. Maybe you’re better skilled in configuring your devices and can offer to protect her from addictive design patterns she is barely aware of.

Fine sneer by data journalist and senior engineer Jacob Harris: Why I Don’t Vibe Code

(slightly dated (Mar 2026) but first time I heard of this guy)

Is anyone familiar with the website I Can Eat Glass? It was apparently created in the 90s by a Harvard student, who was concerned that people learning foreign languages only learn common phrases (e.g. “Where’s the loo?”) which makes them stand out as tourists when they speak. If one were to say a truly uncommon phrase, it stands to reason one would be instantly respected as a native. So he set up a website to collect as many translations of the phrase “I can eat glass, it does not hurt me” as he could.

Surely you are riveted to your screens right now, desperate to learn what this very special brain genius has been up to since then. Ethan Mollick is a professor at a Pennsylvania business school and published “Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI” in 2024. Some say he is substacking about the exponential growth of AI capabilities to this day, but critically this book was apparently read by some german teaching influencer.

He in turn published a self-help book for parents of school kids this year, that got put on display in my local library. And of course it has a chapter on AI, so I had to lend it and hate-read a little. And of course he references Mollick and his Co-Intelligence screed, which he apparently absorbed as a base expectation what the future of AI will look like, and this is how I got to learn about one very special brain genius from Harvard.

My first association was Alex Jones screaming “I’M TEAM HUMAN” while ranting about environmentalists. So the brand is getting a little crowded it seems.

That seems totally reasonable too.

Idk, given that we can’t really conclusively prove that anything post-2022 is slop-free, don’t you think setting a no-AI policy is still good for setting social expectations? And making people spend effort to conceal AI work is not a bad thing, since one problem with slop-PRs is that they are low-effort.

And I use tons of old projects that haven’t made an anti-AI declaration (and have to use a bunch that are slop-permissive e.g. the kernel), but I still appreciate every one that does.

So I just stumbled into Team Human, because a Youtuber I kind of like (Kraut) published a video for them. They seem to run a campaign targeted at creators, pushing to get videos released on the 10th or 17th. So they must be having a bit of a high point right now. (Idk if cash changed hands.)

Their manifesto tries to amp up societal harms, but the existential risk is snuck in at the end (AI programmed pandemics, etc.) and they want to regulate AI chips like nukes. CAIS (Center for AI Safety) is listed as the sponsor. Seems a little “AI centrist” to me, as in aligned with the less insane billionaires, but still a typical AI safety astroturfing shop. Shame if any of your favorite creators fell for it.

Das man sich gerade auf einem niedrigeren Niveau einpendelt als früher halte ich auch für plausibel. Mit Produktivitätsanstieg hat das aber wenig zu tun.

Da ist nichts spannendes passiert. Professionelle Grafikdesigner werden nicht von Software die funktioniert zu Sloposhop wechseln. Wer eine zuverlässige FOSS Version möchte geht immer noch besser zu Krita oder GIMP.

Etwas Kontext zum Kontext: Als ich noch beruflich mit Leuten zu tun hatte, die ständig allen erklären wollten, dass die Blockchain die Zukunft ist, wurde auch gern das Internet als Vergleich herangezogen.

Eine zuverlässige Quelle zu finden war mir zu viel Aufwand. Ich weiß mittlerweile garnicht ob der ursprüngliche Post was aktuelles war, oder ob nur eine Studie aus 2025 wiedergekäut wurde.

Per Suchmaschine findet man einfach so viel Slop nach dem Schema “Die meisten KI Projekte scheitern… beachte daher diese geheimen Tipps um es besser zu machen!” Darüber ist das Meme.

Genauen Link finde ich nicht, referenzierte aber sowas wie das hier: https://deutsche-wirtschafts-nachrichten.de/716921/95-prozent-scheitern-warum-kuenstliche-intelligenz-in-unternehmen-zur-falle-wird

Das was du gesagt hast, aber als Maimai.

CoMaps (Fork von OrganicMaps) kann ich da sehr empfehlen für casual Nutzer. Sehr einfache Oberfläche.
