Message: <blockquote data-quote="LordEntrails" data-source="post: 9865592" data-attributes="member: 6804070">I don't believe you that people who are pushing against AI are doing so effectively. I've asked on these boards how we can come up with effective actions to help. None of the anti AI folks had any interest in practical actions to reduce the harm that will be caused by AI.All I see from folks who are anti-AI is "evil evil bad!" and the the most effective actions they support are complete bans/boycotts.With the current growth and acceptance of AI in the RPG market and world, it's obvious such tactics are not working.So in effect, anti-AI movement is not going to achieve what such people want, and they are unwilling to actually do anything that will. So all they are doing is voicing their opinions so they can be "right" and say "I told you so". If it's not too late already, what are the anti-AI people going to do that is effective?Really? Not washing your hands has a risk to evolve a human ending virus/bacteria. The risk is near infitesimally (sp?) tiny and so we all generally ignore that risk to humans. The development of nuclear weapons the risk has generally been considered high, high enough that society has taken action. AI is generally in the same level of risk (to me), but "we" didn't just assume the world was united on accepting that level of risk. Humans did not just assume that the risk was so universally accepted that parts of society did not work on providing data and support educating and discussing the risks associated with the technology.Sure, go ahead and assume, go ahead and refuse to provide data or support for your views. But don't be surprised when you (anti-AI advocated) voice is ignored, dismissed and your (anti-AI advocated) actions are ineffective in reaching your (anti-AI) goal.To me, this reply is not about supporting pro or anti, but more to point out that when someone wants to resist some common momentum, then you do need to supply data, rational and such. It doesn't matter how "obvious" the logic is to "you" or so apparent it "should be" to everyone, but since you want to change the default societal behavior, you're going to need to do something effective.</blockquote>
