I haven't seen any issues from this instance. Actually, now we're talking about it, I see very, very few AI and crypto bros on Lemmy.

It's actually very nice.

Yeah, it suck to be exposed to anything other than things that confirm our initial hunches. It's so nice to always be told we are right about everything. It's like we get to see how it must feel to actually be smart.

... There are people on lemmy who think "AI" has merit? Almost everything I see is how shit it is. Which I thought was, well... because it IS shit.

Honestly waiting for them to show up and post their absolutely rancid takes is about 20-40% of the fun of this place

I was thinking of this skeet "Giant self-help huckster Tony Robbins is getting in on the AI game. Perfect."

Shilling AI has much fewer downsides that walking on coals I guess

Overall a bit too on the nose for my taste, but the final sentence brought it back, stellar landing.
