ITT: exactly what the tweet was about.
(Edit: It was a tumblr post.)
Y’all just saw “AI” and started frothing at the mouth about LLMs when, in the context of the tweet, it might just as well have referred to path finding AI in a video game.
Seriously, I don’t get the issue but I understand the phenomenon. It’s like painters when the camera was invented,
“cameras will put us out of work, cameras are lower quality, anyone with a camera can just take a picture!”
Painters are still around, painted art is still desired and expensive. It will be the same over time with AI, we just have to wait for people to get over it.
Aren’t you OP? Also, people currently understand “AI” (a marketing term) as “LLMs” and audiovisual producing software. Had you mentioned it in the late 90s, it would’ve been more about “The Matrix” kind of sci-fi AI, for instance, and before it would’ve referred to Cameron’s Terminators or Herbert’s “machine intelligence”. Words and their context. You’re being purposefully obtuse because people here wrote thoughtful comments disagreeing with the premise in the image you posted (and apparently agree with) and you don’t like it as it makes you feel silly. That’s all.

Can be applied to any new technology. This comic was made before generative AI was a thing.
As always, there’s an xkcd for that…lol
To quickly further expand on my previous example with a few I thought of afterwards,
Are cruise lines as a mode of transportation still around? Cruise ships are for leisure now, but they were previously much more prevalent.
But tbf ‘AI’ in current public discourse and pop culture is (annoyingly) used synonymously with ‘LLM’ more often than not
you could be talking about video game AI… but are you?
I wasn’t talking about AI at all, I was talking about people talking about AI.
AFAICT the OP was talking about vocaloid. https://sexygaywizard.tumblr.com/post/739313272247009280/some-of-yall-will-see-the-word-ai-and-freak-out#notes
Well when you’re done not talking about AI feel free to join the discussion.
Exactly, it’s downright comical how well OP called it.

OP in this case would be the Tumblr user sexygaywizard who made the post in the image
Usually we’d use the term “OOP” to refer to the OP of the original post in this context. Helps make it clearer.
Object Oriented Programming
Context clues would make it obvious that that is not what’s meant.
Thanks commenter! That’s why I posted it. I knew this would happen.
