I’m not an AI techie and I’m not well educated on LLMs/AI in general. The issue I’m having is the dichotomy between how people talk about it. I’ve heard completely opposite ends of the spectrum. From AI is quickly becoming advanced enough to threaten human society, all the way to its a glorified dictionary/search engine that can’t really do much of anything. I know Lemmy has a steep anti-AI slant. But, can someone talk about this in a way I can wrap my head around why the divide seems so big?

    I don’t think anyone’s afraid of the machines taking over, but human stupidity in over-relying on them.

        They’re talking, they want other people to become more afraid, but is anyone actually afraid - or just latching on to this delusion of power to push their own agendae as if we all should be afraid?
