I HAVE STOPPED USING AI
Most of you know how excited I've been about AI the last 2 years. Writing, research, video-creation... I've been using it a lot. I encouraged you to use it a good deal, and even said you would fall behind if you didn't. That is still probably true. However,
after using Grok/GPT all day for months, using Kling and Sora several times a week, I have not used them since April 3rd. Why?
First,
something happened. Grok and GPT and several others somehow got shittier seemingly overnight. They
got more woke, began getting things wrong, and even making up facts, citations, sources, etc. That's unacceptable.
Second, I have this impossible-to-ignore feeling inside that something is "off" with these publicly-available AI models, and it goes beyond the obvious errors I mentioned above. I can't describe it, at all, it's just a feeling.
Third,
I cannot say AI actually ever did anything other than save time. Maybe that's not true for video-making, since I don't have any animation skills, but as for the science...
there is no replacement for my brain. Do I believe a properly-coded program could do better? Maybe. But no such thing exists, and once it started making more errors and even inventing things that don't exist - game over on my end.
Today, about the most I use AI for is if a want Grok to make a fun image to go along with a post here on X. Is this likely to continue? No. I'll probably keep going back and trying new updates/models, but for now, it's a no.
I am concerned about these models getting updated programming to take everyone off course or control the narrative. Again, IF THIS IS THE PLAN THEN OUR AI MODELS CAN EASILY BECOME OUR ENEMIES!

If
@BrianRoemmele has a way around this I am all ears (I love his 'personal AI' conversations) but I have not had the time to break into that, and am not even sure I'd know how. I am as concerned about AI data integrity right now as I am the magnetic pole shift and solar flares.
Are you? Have you noticed these recent changes to AI? I'd love to hear from you in the comments.
