@[email protected] Linux itself is heavily using AI models. Therefore, every Linux distribution moving to recent kernel versions is heavily built on top of using AI models. Creating a Linux distribution not heavily using it would require a hard fork of the Linux kernel and many other projects. It's unclear what would be accomplished by banning AI for a tiny portion of the code while continuing to use Linux, AOSP, Chromium and hundreds of other projects heavily using it. We'd still be benefiting from it.

GrapheneOS is currently defending its use of AI coding tools on Mastodon against complaints by various accounts claiming to be users.

We do not understand where you’re coming from or why you’re so incredibly angry with us. It’s not justified and does not make sense.

    I don’t think anyone is “blindly bitching”. I think people have understandable concerns regarding its development, use, and proliferation.

    The other idea that it needs to be a utility is straight from the wet dreams of every AI company. Realistically, the average person has little use for AI and it’s much more likely to be a detriment to them than otherwise. I know someone who is an exec in a big company and they get AI through their work. They use it for inane things mostly, but recently they used it to generate a list of reasons that their kids *dont need to go to school. This is an educated person with a good job who can’t figure out that AI has no idea what their kids need.

    I don’t think AI needs to be used by nearly the number of people currently using it, but my bigger concern is letting anyone, be it a private company or a government, have access to something people treat like a magic answer anything machine.

      I disagree in part. Many people have replaced searching with AI.

      Take a pic of something in chatGPT. “What is this?”

      It’s highly useful in everyday life.

      The problem is that people my age were skilled before AI so it is literally just making things easier for us which is the point.

      Kids on the other hand, it is taking away their opportunity to learn as my generation did and that’s a huge problem.

      Then we get back to the underlying problem. Governance and standards.

      Should AI be allowed in school? Should companies be forced to continue entry level jobs that could be phased out by AI?

      You could ask a million questions.

      The problem with human nature is we are great at figuring out if we can do things we don’t stop to think of we should do things.
