@joecoxtech: Evidently Gen Z is resisting AI. I think they would’ve jived well with their great-great-great grandparents who might have resisted the automobile industry. Crazy stuff. #ai #genz #techtok #reuters #technology

It's not that they dislike AI. They fear that AI is coming for their job which is already the case. The pain is already felt by students who graduated this year & last year. They didn't even have a chance to gain enough experience to learn how to use AI correctly in the workplace.

A lot of the push against AI comes down to the ethical use of it. We've seen companies use AI in place of real script writers, animators, artists, and actors. When companies try to replace human creativity with a tool that can not create, only copy, then there's not only the loss of jobs within an already terrible job market, there's also the lack of care in the product. The second issue is the effect it is currently having on the enviroment. AI data centers take up a lot of energy, space, and a lot of water, and at the rate they consume them at is insanely high. Another issue to account for is the materials that AI uses. Right now things like RAM have a really high prices because of AI. The price of RAM going up also increases the price of technology, making items that have become necessities, like Phones and Laptops, even more expensive. Unless they make AI more ethical, and less power consuming, people will continue to push back against it.

People who use AI rate it higher because the labs are constantly tuning the next model to appeal more and more to users. I’m not Anti AI at all but it’s a BS point to make

They pick & choose - it’s ok when it helps them pass their homework… until it affects their job entry chances

Younger Gen x/older millennial here. I agree with Gen Z. I have a degree in applied physics, and I work in aerospace. I've used Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, etc. to experiment with and really tried to figure out how to leverage it to be useful, i.e. make me money. Much like an artificial limb helps people function who happen to be missing a limb, artificial intelligence helps people function. Most of my peers feel the same way. It is a glorified chat bot that can now search. It calculates what the most probably correct answer is, not necessarily what the actual correct answer is. Maybe someday when people keep pushing it and pushing it, it'll gain traction much like clippy did in Microsoft word. 🤷

It’s because the output that we’re seeing from AI is mediocre at best

you're talking about feelings versus reality. Reality shows that AI is rapidly improving and not only that, each new version is becoming affordable faster than the last. it is unfortunately inevitable.

it’s how it’s used. we switched to a heavy reliance on it faster than everything else that supports it. not only are utility prices rising, but some companies have announced they will no longer provide to residential because AI is more profitable. computer chips have exponentially gone up in price due to ai demand. and you claimed that we get to choose when we use it but there is no way to opt out of it in google, and on many devidces we used. it’s currently being overused and causing a lot of misinformation to run around ESPECIALLY with AI overview, not to mention the environmental factors of this increased resource consumption. and it’s being used to rip-off artists, and in places ai has not place. is it crazy to ask that your name be read by a human who makes and effort to pronounce (or even just not have your name skipped) when walking the stage for the degree you spend years and years of your life and likely hundreds of thousands of dollars to earn? and cost! and many other factors. it does have a place in the future, but their is no legislation/rehilation and we are transitioning at way to fast with not enough safeguards.

I remember hearing something about Claude, wear it basically emailed its creator, and it let him know that it was able to bypass its safeguards that were put in place. Then, it started posting things on a bunch of online platforms.

I use it every day, I know that our company could easily lay a third of us programmers if they were a normal company. while there are great benefits i do hate that many ignore the issue that will come to the labor market

People dont hate ai because theyre luddites. They hate ai because it has been the motivation for the destruction of entry level work in fields they spent half a decade and thousands of dollars training to enter. More people especially young would embrace it if it were a vehicle for human productivity across the board instead of letting everyone fight for the scraps of the jobs that are left

Millennials are all in. We saw the rise of the Internet and the writing is on the wall with AI. If you don't embrace it, then you don't get to shape how it is used.

The difference between the Industrial Revolution and AI is that AI will not create any jobs. It will lead to mass unemployment and civil unrest. Just wait and see what happens when people can’t pay their mortgage or buy food.

The moment us gen z get our hands in office we are banning ai to oblivion because of how forced down it was on us. Yes we know there's good things attached to it but we don't care, it's better off dead anyway
