    A lot of people tend to disagree with me when I say things like this on here, but I do think that if AI pollutes the internet so much that we are forced to spend more time interacting with each other face-to-face, it will be a good thing. Less online homework, less online hiring, less staring at youtube videos

    @MLE_online AI is like the highway billboard advertising signs that First Lady Ladybird Johnson worked to ban in the 1960s.

      @bouriquet it's worse than that. you know billboards are billboards. billboards are an eyesore, but they don't infiltrate everything. AI is like a poo in the water supply

        @MLE_online I am pretty sure this is happening, the AI polluted resumes and all that. The question is which companies realize this first and react intelligently.

            @MLE_online Can somewhat confirm, from the Ohlone College job fair (had to attend when I was on unemployment).

              @MLE_online I would REALLY like people to realtime work with, and if I didn't know better, I would swear I'm the only person in the world. It's fun to work together on a project with others

                  I've been using up my vacation allocation by a half day per fortnight just so I can travel into London to hang out with live coders in person

                    Oh I really hope so, because it has also completely disrupted getting hired.

                        @MLE_online @ai6yr Their HR dept is probably using gen-AI to make the hiring decisions based on AI slop generated by the candidates themselves using gen-AI

                          I'm not pro-ai, but

                          These the companies complaining about the quality of the online applications,,, are they the same companies posting ghost job openings that are dead end time wasters for real folks looking for jobs?

                          (I'm not blaming the messenger. Let's be catty together.)

                            @MLE_online we need public spaces for people to meet, which is why I'm telling anyone who will listen that we need to have more breakdancing fundraisers to support community centers

                                @MLE_online i only disagree for accessibility reasons. the world is not accessible for many people. so until our societies and meat-spaces are made accessible for everyone, online and remote access is crucial.

                                  @MLE_online That kinda ignores "more discrimination against folks on the basis of things you only see in-person" whether that's race, gender conformity, NNT quirks, etc.

                                      @chris_evelyn There's always a downside to anything. The plus side is maybe the epidemic of loneliness would ease somewhat if more people spent less time online

                                        @MLE_online As a queer youth in a rural area in the 90s - my loneliness ended with the internet.

                                        And besides: Where would people go then? There's a seroius lack of places where people can just be and meet without consuming.

                                          @MLE_online As a queer youth in a rural area in the 90s - my loneliness ended with the internet.
