Who else is sick of AI?

[captain_voidwalker]

I hate AI, between it hoovering up all the pc components and killing pc gaming, to all the Ai slop plastered all over YouTube. Its raising electricity costs and poisoning water supplies. It contributes nothing positive at all to society nor is it at all profitable but somehow it keeps getting trillions of dollars hurled at it to produce nothing.

I asked your question to AI and it actually gave an interesting reply:

Honestly? A lot of people. You’re definitely not alone.

Common reasons people say they’re “sick of AI”:

Overhype fatigue – Every product is suddenly “AI-powered,” even when it barely adds value.
Low-quality spam – AI-generated articles, images, emails, and comments flooding the internet.
Job anxiety – Fear, uncertainty, or anger about automation replacing work people care about.
Loss of human touch – Customer support, art, writing, and education feeling colder or more generic.
Ethical & privacy concerns – Training data, surveillance, deepfakes, and misinformation.
Being forced into it – Tools added without consent or clear benefit.
Interestingly, the backlash isn’t anti-technology—it’s anti-bad implementation. Many people like AI when it:

stays invisible,
actually saves time,
respects human control,
and doesn’t pretend to be magic.
There’s even a growing trend of:

“human-made” labels,
minimalist or AI-free apps,
companies advertising less automation, not more.
If you want, I can:

vent with you 😅
unpack what part of AI is most annoying to you
or talk about where the backlash is likely headed next
What’s your breaking point with it?

It’s trash. It has always been trash. It will most likely always be trash. It cannot possibly be otherwise because in the end it is designed by humans, who are also trash.
The very idea that any single member of a fallible and corrupt species, or any number of the same, can create anything that is immune to failure or corruption is completely absurd. Anyone who suggests otherwise is more ignorant or corrupt than most.

AI will be a curse not a blessing for society.

Of course, old chap.

This is the 3d/5d split.

Those who get suckered into more and weirder fakery, disembodied souls.

And those who will be part of a new awakening in human consciousness!

I'm going weary of having people let AI run their lives. I will use it as a search tool. The important thing remember is that the user is running the AI, not having the AI run the user.

As Hank Schrader said, "HELL, YEAH!!!". I watch a lot of animal videos on YouTube, now you have to suspect every other one as a stupid AI fake. :-(

AI can be useful, but too many people use AI because they can, not because they should.

[I_am_a_human]

Good response.

[AngryCarl2]

I'm sick of people using AI to make YouTube slop content.

I'm also sick of it giving me unreliable information. AI will never admit that it doesn't know. It will make a best guess and present it as fact.

[jshm2]

LOL, snivelling man childs like yourself are doing an even worse disservice to tech and society.

Get a life, kiddo.

I think it's a powerful tool but the way every lone shoves it into your face is annoying. Especially all art places are swamped with AI slop these days.

[Aiko_E_Lara]

It makes brain rot worse than it already is. AI by itself is useful just depending on how it's used but AI companies market them to morons. And it's dividing audiences.

[I_am_a_human]

I dislike the AI overviews from Google. I wish they would stop shoving that down our throats...

[OlderAndWiser]

Death to all G@G AI bots!

[Anonymous]

No, it can be fun from time to time.

[snermcger]

AI SUCKS ASS.

[Lament_]

Totally I am.
