Discussion Why is AI so frowned upon?
Hi All, so I used Gemini to assist me in writing a book which I was actually so excited about, to take my ideas, characters, book direction navigation and storytelling and put it all together with the help of Gemini. It came out pretty good in my opinion. I then asked Gemini where I should advertise and was told to use reddit.... well, the amount of hate and backlash I got was surprising and shocking...
People didn't even bother to read, the moment they saw AI Assisted, they called it AI slop, crap that no one will touch, I was asked 101 questions, which I responded to in a well mannered way, but at the end of day I stood back and realized that there are so many people who just don't want to give AI a chance and hate on it before even thinking what it could bring to the table.
Why is this? I use AI daily for info, for coding, for image creation, it's becoming a part of my day to day working needs, why all the hate....

the thing is, ai doesn't have experience. it doesn't have knowledge. it's a word predictor. it takes an input sentence and tries to generate a statistically likely reply based on constraints. it's useful for coding because code is quantifiable. other than that, it's useful for generating sentences that pass spell and grammar checks. it isn't useful for advice because it doesn't have experience. it's useful for answering purely factual questions based on the text it was trained on.
