I want to let people know why I’m strictly against using AI in everything I do without sounding like an ‘AI vegan’, especially in front of those who are genuinely ready to listen and follow the same.

Any sources I try to find to cite regarding my viewpoint are either mild enough to be considered AI generated themselves or filled with extremist views of the author. I want to explain the situation in an objective manner that is simple to understand and also alarming enough for them to take action.

    1. AI is bad because, in its current state, it takes up way too many resources and contributes heavily to climate change. All that and it’s current output is often unreliable and/or displaces human labor.

    2. As with the use of AI, someone asking other people for information should verify what they are seeing. Assuming OP already has their beliefs more or less set, they’re potentially just looking for some more well-crafted arrangement of the ideas, and they have a preference to ask humans for that rather than AI.

    Re: division of labor, likely it contributes to people having less broad and more specialized knowledge. The benefit, however, is that we don’t need everyone to learn every single skill needed for self-sufficient living. I’d rather my surgeon to be a specialist in surgery, not needing to spend much of their time growing their own food, maintaining their home and clothing, and so on.
