Kids today are learning that the fastest and easiest way to make moneyβthe key value that has been modeled to them in America societyβis to scam others, cheat your way through, and attract negative attention online that can be monetized. My endless sympathy to parents

Generative Al is being marketed as a tool designed to reduce or eliminate the need for developed, cognitive skillsets. It uses the work of others to simulate human output, except that it lacks grasp of nuance, contains grievous errors, and ultimately serves the goal of human beings being neurologically weaker due to the promise of the machine being better equipped than the humans using it would ever exert the effort to be.
The people that use generative Al for art have no interest in being an artist; they simply want product to consume and forget about when the next piece of product goes by their eyes. The people that use generative Al to make music have no interest in being a musician; they simply want a machine to make them something to listen to until they get bored and want the machine to make some other disposable slop for them to pass the time with.
The people that use generative Al to write things for them have no interest in writing. The people that use generative Al to find factoids have no interest in actual facts. The people that use generative Al to socialize have no interest in actual socialization.
In every case, they've handed over the cognitive load of developing a necessary, creative human skillset to a machine that promises to ease the sweat equity cost of struggle. Using generative Al is like asking a machine to lift weights on your behalf and then calling yourself a bodybuilder when it's done with the reps. You build nothing in terms of muscle, you are not stronger, you are not faster, you are not in better shape.
You're just deluding yourself while experiencing a slow decline due to self-inflicted atrophy.
re: generative AI
I have finally fully and accurately explained my problem with how itβs marketed and used.
And now, you can use it, too.

βIt was a very healthy reciprocal acceptance of suffering,β he said. βWhich does not mean being defeated by suffering. Acceptance is not defeat. Acceptance is just awareness.β He smiled in anticipation of the callback: β βYou gotta learn to love the bomb,β β he said. βBoy, did I have a bomb when I was 10. That was quite an explosion. And I learned to love it. So that's why. Maybe, I don't know. That might be why you don't see me as someone angry and working out my demons onstage. It's that I love the thing that I most wish had not happened.β

I asked him if he could help me understand that better, and he described a letter from Tolkien in response to a priest who had questioned whether Tolkien's mythos was sufficiently doctrinaire, since it treated death not as a punishment for the sin of the fall but as a gift. βTolkien says, in a letter back: βWhat punishments of God are not gifts?β β Colbert knocked his knuckles on the table. β βWhat punishments of God are not gifts?β β he said again. His eyes were filled with tears. βSo it would be ungrateful not to take everything with gratitude. It doesn't mean you want it. I can hold both of those ideas in my head.β
when i think of Colbert, i think of an interview he gave to GQ when he first took over The Late Show, and had this to say about losing his father and brothers in a plane crash. www.gq.com/story/stephe...

ICE arrested Job Garcia while he was running errands in LA. Job is a US citizen, a scholar, and a brilliant photographer. Heβs also my friend. But none of that should determine his humanity.
ICE must release Job Garcia immediately.
