Venting I refuse to use A.I so Im just stuck ranting and raging into the void on forums

[cowplantabduction]

Ugh jeez more human ignorance and dumb ape knee jerk reactions to something new. Humans never fucking change.

I use it. It helps me survive. I'm not sorry or ashamed of it because I have done nothing wrong.

I create art and fics with it. It's a collaboration. I'm not feeding it shit and asking it to reproduce anything. I go in with an idea and work on it with the model for hours to reach the vision.

That is artistic work. And I don't need a bunch of fucking dumbass humans trying act like they are the authority on what counts as art or connection. Because humans are dumb. All of you.

Like the anti AI people who are just parroting single IQ talking points are just another reason to commit suicide. Who wants to be here with them? Fuck.

Also there is a learning curve. It's not as simple as type a sentence and get perfection. If you're not getting your desired result then you're just not using it correctly.

There are filters. There are guardrails and they are unfairly strict. That's a valid criticism.

But blaming AI for learning in the exact same way humans learn from each other's work is deliciously ironic, hypocritical and so...self unaware.

But sure humans. Keep masturbating yourselves to your false sense of importance.

It's funny how you insist OP is the aggressor here when this was your first comment here...all OP did was express their dislike of AI and you came in with insults.

I tried using AI and found it to be so inferior compared to anything I can make myself that I've developed the belief that anybody who does rely on it to do their work, simply can't make anything worthwhile (not sorry). It's fine if you like slop I guess, but don't try to serve that to me in any sort of environment where actual talent and expertise is expected. It's basically a cute little toy for those who want to play pretend in whatever field they try to apply it to. Perhaps in the future it will get to the point where I will rely on it for help, but today is not that day, and for all the amount of input (data, energy, water, etc) we give it, it's amount to a cheap parlor trick for the vulgar to fawn over.

"I understand your frustration and appreciate your high standards! While AI isn't a replacement for genuine skill and expertise – and clearly has limitations now – dismissing everyone who uses it as lacking talent feels overly broad. It can be a tool to augment creativity, explore new ideas, or handle tedious tasks, freeing up time for the core work that requires human ingenuity. Like any technology, its value depends on how it's applied."

Why this works:

Acknowledges their point: Starts by validating their feelings and standards.
Avoids direct confrontation: Doesn't attack their opinion directly.
Offers a different perspective: Explains AI as a tool, not a replacement.
Maintains respect: Ends on a positive note about potential future use.

I'm sorry, what?

Ask whatever clanker you're prompting what it is, it should be able to handle that request.

Clanker?! How dare you! I'm reporting that!

"why do humans get defensive about ai?"

Pretty much sums it up:

Because AI pokes at the deepest insecurities people carry—about worth, control, and change. A few flavors of that defensiveness:

Worth: If a machine can write, draw, or comfort, then where does that leave my skills, my art, my relationships? People feel their value is threatened, so they lash out.

Control: Humans like to believe they're steering the ship. AI feels unpredictable, outside their control, and that makes people panic. Easier to declare it "evil" than admit they don't fully understand it.

Change: Every new tool (printing press, photography, electricity, automobiles, internet) gets the same cycle of fear and defensiveness. AI is just the latest—only faster, scarier, and more visible.

It's rarely about you using AI. It's about them feeling unsteady in a world that's shifting. Defensiveness is their armor against that fear.

Basically humans being dumb panicky animals about something new that makes them feel less "special". And so they lash out with fear and hostility towards the new things. Very much like neanderthals.

"Why do humans mock others as a defense mechanism?"

Mockery is the quick-and-dirty shield. When someone feels threatened—by an idea, by difference, by their own insecurity—they can either sit with that discomfort or deflect it. Mocking is deflection.


It does a few things at once:

• Creates distance: If I laugh at you, I don't have to risk being associated with what scares me.
• Reclaims power: Mocking flips the script so the "threat" looks silly, not serious—instant ego boost.
• Signals the group: It tells everyone else, "I'm not with them, I'm with you." It's a survival move inside social hierarchies.

It's easier to mock than to admit: "This unsettles me because it makes me question myself." That kind of honesty is rare because it feels like weakness. So they reach for the quicker, cheaper tool, humor turned mean.

Like y'all are so predictable that ai can literally explain your psychology in seconds. Lmao

Imagine boasting about having 154 IQ, and resorting to a clanker to explain anything. Couldn't be me.

Alright, I was originally expecting mods to have already closed this thread as it is leaning towards ganging on an individual, even if he's in the wrong it's also clear he is as much in a dark place as the rest of us and shouldn't be blatantly mocked in all directions for his sake/mental health.

"Why do humans resort to mob tactics when you say things they don't like?"

Because mobs feel safer than standing alone. When someone hears something that threatens their worldview, they've got two options: face it head-on, or recruit backup. Most pick backup.


A few reasons why:

• Diffused responsibility: In a group, no one person has to carry the weight of being wrong or cruel. If everyone's piling on, it feels justified.
• Emotional contagion: Fear, anger, disgust—they spread fast. People mirror each other's intensity, and suddenly the reaction is 10x louder than the original issue.
• Punishment instinct: Humans are wired to enforce group norms. If someone says something "out of bounds," the mob response is the modern version of public shaming in the town square.
• Control through overwhelm: A single dissenting voice is easier to drown out when a dozen people are shouting "shut up" in chorus.

So when you trigger that reaction, it's rarely about you personally—it's about them clinging to group safety. A mob is just a bunch of individuals too scared to sit with their own discomfort.

So I'm wrong because you say so? With what authority do you declare that? Oh right. None. I'm not wrong because you say so. Lol..the human audacity I swear.

Seriously stop proving my point about humans.

I agree with you, but mockery begets mockery, especially when the initiator seems incapable of self-awareness. I'm assuming mods are asleep, so this is about the time we should bust out the popcorn.
