What is the gaslighting here? A trend, or the act of pointing out a trend, do not seem like gaslighting to me. At most it seems like bandwagon propaganda or the satire thereof.
For the second paragraph, I agree we (Lemmings) are all pretty against it and we can be echo-chambery about it. You know, like Linux!
But I would also DISagree that we (population of earth) are all against it.
It seems like the most immature and toxic thing to me to invoke terms like “gaslighting,” ironically “toxic,” and all the other terms you associate with these folks, defensively and for any reason, whether it aligns with what the word actually means or not. Like a magic phrase that instantly makes the person you use it against evil, manipulative and abusive, and the person that uses it a moral saint and vulnerable victim. While indirectly muting all those who have genuine uses for the terms. Or i’m just going mad exaggerating, and it’s just the typical over- and mis-using of words.
Anyhow, sadly necessary disclaimer, i agree with almost all of the current criticism raised against AI, and my disagreements are purely against mischaracterizations of the underlying technology.
EDIT: I just reminded myself of when a teacher went ballistic at class for misusing the term “antisocial,” saying we’re eroding and polluting all genuine and very serious uses of the term. Hm, yeah it’s probably just that same old thing. Not wrong for going ballistic over it, though.
