Dell is now shifting it focus this year away from being ‘all about the AI PC.’

    There are good uses for AI, and there are bad uses. I’m much more pro-AI than the average lemmy user but I seriously don’t want it controlling my computer. I can do that by myself just fine. I’ll use AI when I want to use it, otherwise fuck off and let me use my bash terminal in peace.

      Yes, it’s useful for things like text to speech that doesn’t sound like a Speak & Spell or motion detection that doesn’t go off because a bug flew past the camera. I consider stuff like LLMs that will lie to me useless though.

        LLMs are basically con bots…when they hallucinate they’re trying to con you into buying their bullshit, and they write it with such confidence that i kinda believe them. at least part of me believes them.

      Yeah I don’t mind AI as another tool in the tool belt, but it’s being forced as the magic one-size-fits-all solution. Also the AI tools must be opt-in by default.

      I like sex.

      I don’t like companies forcing sex on me so they can collect data to sell ads.

      When the discussions about AI are about the latter, I’m just going to say I don’t like it without needing to clarify.
