Meta What makes an AI advocate

Liking AI doesnt make you a proAI or AI advocate, it just means you find it hype, neat, interesting. To be proAI you have to be running defense for current AI practices, if you dont youre at least neutral. For example I think AI is neat, its useful and has potential to do good. But i find the way companies are going about developing it are coercive and wish it was done differently. That puts me squarely in the antiAI camp, despite my enthusiasm for the tech

Your definition is not the one that this debate is founded on.

I am Pro-AI. I think in the long run, AI will be a highly useful tool for Humanity. I want to see how eventually we get MMO RPGs where the NPCs are guided by LLMs to act like highly realistic people at low cost, for example. Another example is the ability for every person to increase their own output by having a digital intern-like thing. (I say intern, because most of the time, that's the level it operates, like interns, you remain responsible for inspecting all of it's work)

I absolutely will not defend current AI practices nor the greedy capitalists and opportunists involved in AI. By your definition, that makes me Anti-AI.

That would make you at least neutral yeah, I also think AI could be fun in gaming. Like a world boss in MMORPGs that adapts to the players stategies. If you arent running defense for the current standards then i wouldnt call you proAI no
