   @ringo @kaia it was a joke about people's willingness to accept whatever ai says, albeit poorly formed. I think what it said here is probably accurate, but it would be funny if someone changed their stance on instance blocking because AI told them to.

     agreed, and it's basically my arguments that I fed it and it ran with it. I just thought this was more effective in delivery.

     @ringo @kaia AI is no more a demon than any other computer program. It's neat technology that has some utility, but people treating it like it's more than that is similar to demon worship. demystifying machine learning is the best way to avoid misunderstanding what we call "artificial intelligence". It's actually pretty basic computing at the conceptual level, but the size of the models and the amount of data they are trained on makes LLMs do some pretty neat things that are hard to imagine being possible using more conventional programming methods.

     @ringo @kaia I will listen to this in a bit, but I don't think it will change my opinion. It's like if someone tells a mechanic that internal combustion engines are summoning the power of satan to move you down the road. Sure if you don't understand how it works it can be spooky, but once you see how the internals work the mystery is gone.

     @thatguyoverthere @kaia @ringo I think AI is closer to a false idol than a demon (at least when people mistakenly say it's conscious/superintelligent; using AI as a tool to diagnose cancer or play tic-tac-toe on the other hand is far from idolatrous)

     @genmaicha @kaia @ringo yeah false idol seems more accurate. I would say that those who think every problem is just waiting for an AI solution are obviously idolizing it, but I also think that fearing it can be a form of idolizing it (albeit not idol worship at that point). Like being afraid that an angry local spirit is going to cause a drought.

     @ringo @kaia I don't know this is all cut up and you have no way of knowing what the initial prompt was that guided the conversations throughout the video. I don't even know who that guy with the black shirt is, where he's talking, or whether or not he knows anything at all about how neural networks and machine learning works.
