not here for sure, but Lemmy is not exactly a reflection of the general population
people are starting to grow numb to gen AI, and people have grown numb to worse things so it's not exactly going to get undone easily
Even on Lemmy AI has been normalized a bit, although in those cases it’s always used to make fun of some dead MAGA or some dying MAGA
Zero people in my personal life and one person in my professional life thinks that way
Have you not seen all the slop posts recently that are getting lots and lots of upvotes. I'm afraid we are a minority now.
Honestly, I have not seen anyone who values art "be ok with" generative AI.
The only people who think it is even remotely cool are lazy programmers with no friends.
No programmers.
Losers who see ai as the opportunity to compete with people who are passionate about something else than fame or money.
Oi! I'm a lazy programmer with no friends, and I will not take this slander!
Hell even from day one I've known some students even who didn't like it. I have met pro-AI people, mostly c-suite wannabes though.
