“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡
Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI
Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

I've received an 'exclusive' invite to try Nature's new 'research assistant', which will burn down a forest to provide a 'summary of the paper' I'm reading and I have SUCH exciting news for them, that's called an 'abstract' and the actual authors already wrote it for me, no forest-burning required.

Apparently my kids’ school can’t have a no AI policy because the student teachers placed there are required to teach “responsible use” of AI. What would that even be? How do you responsibly use something built on stolen work? That is draining aquifers and doubling people’s power bills?

Every person who says "of course there are some uses for LLMs" should be forced to immediately list what those uses are, taking into account that:
a) they cannot be accurate and there is no way to make them accurate

A good rubric for any given piece of media about "transgender issues" is asking yourself how well the author answered the question "What about the trans people?"
It seems so stupidly obvious but you'll quickly notice how discourse ostensibly about us generally avoids the consequences we face
