@markn @ascentale @daihard @bikenite https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/ai-unpopular-in-america-new-nbc-poll/ Gen AI may be less popular than we think from our interactions with others (a lot of people I know feel they have to self-censor their negative views on AI at work and with their friends)

@wlukewindsor @ascentale @daihard @bikenite Thanks for that - interesting. Although it's very fuzzy about the underlying reasons or the poll details. I am worried about my job security, so I dislike AI... Is a long way from having concerns about ethics or the viability of the technology**. I guess sometimes it doesn't matter why, sometimes it does. ** I should rephrase that! I am not even sure "AI" is a technology, more like a non specific marketing term that over promises with bells on and lays the foundation for the current hype cycle. BELLS! See I knew I'd get back to bicycles by the end of the comment.
