1. Disgusting. And this is mostly about that nearly worthless genAI used for student cheating and other

fraud, for AI slop fake art and video flooding the internet, for AI slop fake books/articles and music, for AI-generated-and-spread misinformation and disinformation, for deepfakes including deepfake porn.

The sheer stupidity of the genAI boom, given all the harm it does, is almost unbelievable.

But it entertains and deceives the gullible, lets students think they can cheat their way through school, and lets greedy company owners and execs think they can dump most of their employees so there's more money for those at the top. It almost always brings out the worst in people.

But it's new tech, so we're supposed to welcome it and adapt to it.
