Comment on Transgender, nonbinary and disabled people more likely to view AI negatively, study shows

That's interesting. I feel like a lone voice in my university, trying to explain to people that using LLMs to do research tasks isn't a good idea for several reasons, but I'd never imagine that being disabled would put me into a group more likely to think like that. If I had to guess, I'd suggest that there's possibly a strong network effect being abused in our social environment to make people get into the AI hype, and we, the ones who live less connected to the "standard" social norms, tend to become less vulnerable to it.

It may also be that disabled, transgender and nonbinary people are more aware of:

The use of AI to reduce people’s employment opportunities, which are already tough enough for people in these groups.

The tendency of AI to reproduce the prejudices present in its training materials. If everyone’s relying on AI then these prejudices are going to be perpetuated just because LLMs are regurgitation machines.

  As an autistic bastard I just think it’s shit, though I will say that I do partake in the guilty pleasure of Two Scuffed and DougDoug. But I wouldn’t feel particularly bad if every bit of generative AI spontaneously corrupted and could never be replicated, generally feels like a money sink for dipshit corporations at this point.
