LinkDaLunatic 06/24/25 10:51:39 AM #13:	I can't really answer this poll because it's not just a blanket yes or no. I like some of the things AI can do. I don't like how it's being forced into basically everything. I feel like it was released to the public too quickly, and grew too fast. In addition it was released prematurely. It's not quite at the level it needs to be, to be useful in many of the applications where it's already been shoehorned in. Companies already see it as a fast, easy replacement for human work, intelligence and ingenuity and well... it just isn't that. Not at all. There isn't the right level of control on it. I'm not pro-censorship, so to be clear about what I mean by control, I just think that AI content should always be required to be clearly labeled as such, and should be segregated from normal content so users who aren't looking for it don't have to engage with it. Beyond that, I think that any use of it in business or financial applications needs to be heavily regulated. By the very nature of generative AI, it can be profoundly incorrect while sounding very convincing, and that's so obviously dangerous I can't believe it hasn't been addressed by the government already. But that's all just me. There's a crazy number of people who are super gung-ho for AI and just want to use it for everything and don't care if the content they engage with is real or not. So what do I know? --- There's a time and place for everything... but not now. <cite>LinkDaLunatic posted [p:985547492] in Are you a ...

KogaSteelfang 06/24/25 11:26:50 AM #25:	I'm leaning towards yes, I'm a fan, because I have a lot of fun playing around with image and video generations. And it makes things accessible to me that I wouldn't normally have access to, or would take years of effort just to start learning what it gives with a touch of a button. That being said, I absolutely recognize the danger it poses. Not only taking jobs from people who have put in the time and effort to learn those skills, but it being misused could easily lead to big issues. Especially with the newer hyper realistic videos that can mimic real people. So, I do have mixed feelings about it, but overall I feel if used correctly, and regulated properly, it could benefit us a lot. But I also don't expect it to be regulated or used properly anytime soon. So I'm just having fun making silly videos to share with my family. --- My YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@steelfang8806 My Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/steelfangkoga <cite>KogaSteelfang posted [p:985547861] in Are you a ...
