Exactly. Everyone on both sides of the debate is so solipsistic that no one talks about what’s actually happening. And what’s actually occurring is (as usual) all I care about.
The question, “Does AI act and think exactly like a human?” is idiotic. Clown-level thinking. “Does a submarine swim like a fish?” Who gives a fuck? The doofshit left is so concerned with calling AI a “plagiarism machine”and retrenching corporate copyright power in an extremely poorly-considered rearguard action against AI that they never even consider what’s really in store for the future or even what’s happening right under their always-upturned noses.
The real question is, “To what extent will AI replace human labor?” And, “What are the consequences of AI use, in the politico-economic sense and socioculturally?” (Etc.)
AI and all the implications and complications thereof is not going away. The Bluesky clowns can screech all they like about their poorly-conceptualized understanding of plagiarism and how AI works but the incontestable fact is that AI is here and MBAs are going to use it even where it makes zero sense. That is now inevitable (absent Butlerian Jihad).
Time to deal with it like adults, not like whiny petulant children.
