Hi Jen,
Wait, so Louis actually admitted to using a chatbot or something to “brainstorm” (heavy quotes to indicate my skepticism at there being any “brain” involved there)??
I—
It's around the 23:00 mark they start talking about it, little bit before and after, but he says, "In terms of everyday brainstorming, I use it all the time." Ugh, say less (literally)
re Louis and AI - my brother uses an ai chatbot to bounce ideas off of and chat to and I find it utterly incomprehensible, for a start, the chatbot voice is relentlessly cheerful and helpful and I find it THE most annoying thing in the world. I think it's going to make people stupider and society worse but my main beef with ai is how much energy it takes and for fucking what? we're dealing with and environmental and energy crisis and we're using our dwindling resources for this - we truly are just going to hurtle off the cliff and have to deal with everything in the most painful way.
alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll of this, we'll destroy our brains and the planet and for what, the most banal shit spit back back out to you in a cheery voice, full of extra words and hallucinations? I'll do that for you for free, and I won't even drink a sip of water, I swear
