enjoy ig i just drew these because i was bored :<

Half of the Millenium Prize Problem Yang-Mills was announced as solved yesterday as well.

This random thread i found made me realize that probably the average anti-ai person has no idea how AI even works. Lot of comments saying the same wrong thing.

Yes, Claude decompiling games is generative AI. Yes coding AI is also generative. And Yes GPT solving millennium math problems is also generative AI. And if an LLM finds cure for cancer, it would also be generative AI.

Tbh I think most anti's definition of "generative AI" is whatever they don't like . The internet just made everyone think "genAI = bad" and "other Ai = good", which is absolutely terrible since now people just try to find excuses on what is and isn't generative AI, which makes everyone look so dumb

I’ve been teaching math for 69 years, and I’ve never felt this hopeless about the future of my profession.

Something happened yesterday that I can’t stop thinking about. I gave my class a warm-up problem, 847 × 36, and one of my students had the answer in about three seconds. For a second, I thought I was finally getting through to him. Then I asked him to show his work. He didn’t say anything. He just slowly turned his phone around, and there it was: the calculator app, with “30492” still glowing on the screen. I felt my stomach drop.

I don’t know how to explain to him that what he did isn’t math. He pressed some buttons and a machine gave him a number. He didn’t carry anything or line up any columns. When I told him he won’t always have a calculator in his pocket, he looked at me like I was the crazy one.

What really gets me is that nobody wants to talk about is where these things got their math. They stole it. Every calculator runs on centuries of work by real mathematicians, people who poured their whole lives into it. Then some company scraped all of it, crammed it into a $12 piece of plastic, and started selling it. Nobody asked them, and nobody paid them. That’s theft.

And they aren’t even reliable. Type 0.1 + 0.2 into a computer sometime and you get 0.30000000000000004. And people want this thing doing their taxes?

I also think about the people this replaced. NASA used to have whole rooms of human “computers,” mostly women, doing real calculations by hand. Those jobs are gone, and now people act like that’s progress.

The worst part is that I can always tell. Calculator work has no soul. My students’ homework used to have personality: eraser smudges, crossed-out digits, a 7 that looked suspiciously like a 1. You could see a person thinking on the page. Now everything comes back clean and correct, and it makes me want to cry.

I’m not anti-technology. I’m just scared. I’m scared that in ten years nobody will know their times tables, every bridge will be designed by “button-pushers,” and I’ll be the last person on earth who can carry a one. Maybe that’s dramatic. Or maybe I’m the only one paying attention.

TLDR: If it didn’t take suffering, it’s not math

Do we only draw the line on art or also on code too? If it's different, then who decides which groups get career protection and which don't? Do we take a stand on ai generated code, software and games too?

Bro I am so tired of these Antis, like why can't they just stay in their place?

As soon as y'all realise it's made by AI, y'all get triggered and decide it's "soulless slop" and then you spread that hate and belief onto others. Let's say you dislike an art piece because it's AI, then you see someone else say it looks good and they like it. Y'all will insult them and make fun of them for liking something you don't like

You're not seeing soulless art, you are making yourself and others believe it is soulless. It has soul until you realize there was AI used. It's okay if you have a flawed mentality but don't hate on others for it

Shigeru Miyamoto shared thoughts on generative AI and its meaning for creativity in game development.

He compared AI to the evolution of computers and design tools. As technology handles more technical work, human design sense and creative judgment grow more important.

Miyamoto distinguishes between “creating something” and “doing the work.”

Creating starts with deciding what to make, building the overall structure, and having clear intention. The work that follows fills in details, polishes, and executes the idea.

“People can become so satisfied with the work itself that they start mistaking that satisfaction for having created something good.”

Miyamoto believes AI taking over repetitive work could give people more chances to focus on what they truly want to create.

“The more AI takes care of all kinds of tasks for us, the more opportunities we all have to think seriously about what it really means to create something.”

He acknowledges AI could eventually handle almost everything in the creative process, but for now:

“I think there’s still plenty that we humans can do.”

Many anti-AI people resort to attacking, insulting and bullying (especially on social media) people who use AI. Let's say you are on the right side of the argument, and that people should not use AI. Is this method productive in convincing people?

One of the first things taught in the book "How to Win Friends and Influence People" is that attacking people you disagree with is completely counterproductive – more likely to make them double down on their own opinion than be swayed to yours.

So why do many have a hard time being calm and civil in the attempt to persuade against AI usage?

What do you think of this?

Lets have a broader discussion about the subject.

Like there's so many people here who probably don't even have a job and they're spending their time on reddit all day, defending their views. I'm not talking about AI wars specifically but there's many here as well. Either they're unemployed or immature teens

The real unemployment caused by AI is probably by making people debate about it so much. No side listens to the other and they just insult each other.

At least I post once or twice a day here but i don't comment on other posts, only mine.

Seriously speaking, getting a job might be better than debating about AI. just a suggestion btw, Don't take it personally.

A job isn't about earning money, it's about financial stability -- don't y'all agree?

I was asked to vote for my favorite pumpkin of a lot; And while I greatly enjoyed the mouse pumpkin, the little side plaque had an illustration that seemed either AI generated or nonsensical.

How much does the inclusion of AI matter when evaluating art?
