Friend saw ‘convenience’ and that was it. No more reading, only fists. I thought I was quite neutral. Yes, convenience. I have been known to use a local LLM based on recipes to give me ideas what I could make based on my pantry.
I have a lovely recipe for absolutely delicious chocolate-chip cookies that use pancake mix.

Are you trying to deny that AI is also convenient for regular people?

Uh, yes. AI cannot and does not have productive output as its goal, technologically speaking. Therefore, any “convenience” is imagined and projected upon algorithmically most likely text. It’s just a statistician strapped in front of the 1 Million Monkeys thought experiment.
It’s quintessentially useless, unless your ultimate goal is text resembling language en masse. But usually, Loren Ipsum is much more energy efficient.

But if it saves time on some simple tasks, how can you say it’s not convenient?
RiverRabbits@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 days ago
there is no task that is meaningful time saved by a kind of context-dependant lorem ipsum. The task is then not done, but simply rejected on its face.
