  • I think many comments have already nailed it.

    I would add that while I hate the use of LLMs to completely generate artwork, I don’t have a problem with AI enhanced editing tools. For example, AI powered noise reduction for high ISO photography is very useful. It’s not creating the content. Just helping fix a problem. Same with AI enhanced retouching to an extent. If the tech can improve and simplify the process of removing an errant power line, dust spec, or pimple in a photograph, then it’s great. These use cases help streamline otherwise tedious bullshit work that photographers usually don’t want to do.

    I also think it’s great hearing about the tech is improving scientific endeavors. Helping to spot cancers etc. As long as it is done ethically, these are great uses for it.
















  • I watch a ton of YouTube. I love it for entertainment and some news. I absolutely hate YouTube for tutorials or guides though. If I’m trying to figure out how to fix a computer issue, I just want to read about it and have screenshots I can look at. I don’t want to have to constantly pause a damn video or scroll back and forth to find info.

    As far as tiktok style videos go I just hate everything about them. I hate the auto play, I hate the vertical aspect ratio, I hate the stupid auto voiceovers, I hate the dumb floating captions and comments overlay, I hate the lack of volume adjustment or the ability to pause and rewind or seek. I hate the types of brainrot content that people make to work the algorithm. I hate that the format has infested YouTube and IG with no real way to be rid of it.
