cannibalizes human culture, harms human artists, and discourages humans from learning to create for themselves. It's disastrous for human culture.

The internet is already flooded with.AI slop, ranging from garbage AI art to garbage articles on websites set up in minutes to garbage scientific and medical articles. This crap can be generated by AI in seconds, by people who might have at most an idle interest in what is being generated.

It's ALREADY causing students to switch majors and plans - to decide there's no point in learning anything.

Generative AI is IMO the most harmful non-weapon technology ever.

And it's being used more and more in weapons, where its hallucinations can pretty much guarantee wrong decisions being made and wrong targets hit.
