There is a machine learning bubble, but the technology is here to stay. Once the bubble pops, the world will be changed by machine learning. But it will probably be crappier, not better.
What will happen to AI is boring old capitalism. Its staying power will come in the form of replacing competent, expensive humans with crappy, cheap robots.
AI is defined by aggressive capitalism. The hype bubble has been engineered by investors and capitalists dumping money into it, and the returns they expect on that investment are going to come out of your pocket. The singularity is not coming, but the most realistic promises of AI are going to make the world worse. The AI revolution is here, and I don’t really like it.
My point is “AI is great because it solves the problem AI created” is an absurd argument.
Its not a problem if its removed by improved ai; it would be a transient fear that never manifests.
We already experience blog spam destroying search results. These problems exist.
Remember the promises of social media and the complete ignorance we all shared around it?
Either way I’m not an idiot. I use AI every day in my work, probably more than you do tbh. The problem is AI evangelists have an almost faith-like quality to them, very much like crypto bros. Y’all have this inability to critically assess it and treat everyone like they’re ignorant children who “just don’t get it” or “hate progress.”
