My strategy to defeat AI is to be too stupid to realize I'm engaging with it and draining all their resources on the energy it takes to agrue with me.

Trying to outlast a machine in a battle of stamina? You're gonna have a tough time with that

No, we need to stop using all AI systems as soon as possible. Show the companies behind them that there is no market, no interest, no future profits.

They've been dumping all this AI crap for free or way too cheap. The idea is to create a market which can be exploited in the future. However this isn't sustainable, they have poured billions into this, there is no way they are ever going to make that money back. It's just a matter of time before the bubble collapses and it will make the dotcom bubble popping look like a fish farted in the ocean. And for you people too young to remember what that bubble bursting was like, it was bad. The sooner the bubble bursts, the less bad it will be.

This all wouldn't matter as much, fuck the companies right? Except the little side effect of this whole thing is us using up our precious resources, using up our planet, bringing about horrific scenarios at an alarming pace. We've barely seen what climate change can do, but at this pace we are going to find out.

And don't get your hopes up on the technology improving and becoming more useful. More and more indicators have shown the diminishing returns are hitting hard. And it was a kind of one time thing, one opportunity to train models on all the data humans created and put on the internet. Now that more and more of the internet is being AI generated and people closing access to AI crawlers, the well has been poisoned. All that crappy data created worse performing models, not better. Sure with more raw power and clever tricks the performance can get somewhat better, but it needs to be much much better to do what companies tell you it can do, in order to sell it.

And I haven't even mentioned the morality issues, copyright issues, propaganda/control and educational issues. Let alone accidentally hitting the singularly and wiping out humanity due to some paperclip problem.

Exceptions exist, like expert systems / machine learning in data processing and analysis. But we've had those for decades and just recently got the AI label to ride the hype.

AI needs to go away, sooner rather than later.
