I've met very few people in the US with more than a passing interest in AI and everyone in my friends and family circle has left X/Twitter. #ven the hardcore conservative folks.
Never really used Twitter or any of those self-centered social media sites, I just can't grasp the concept of them. I use some LLMs locally, fun tools / toys, but I know it's not the big overhyped "AI" revolution that big corpos tried to sell it as. Actually makes me laugh a little with how much investments they made into it, and it potentially not paying out as they expected.
I’m from the us and the most I see “AI” for is a cool toy for maybe a few months, don’t use it for a while, rinse and repeat
BUT PLEASE I DONT NEED AN AI POWERED TOASTER FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY
also reminds me of a meme: Two sets of code side by side and identical with the caption of “2010: powered by our algorithm | 2020: powered by our AI”
Find "Brits", replace with "People"
The way this article reports about these things makes it seem like we should all be disappointed in the British. I mean, we should definitely all be disappointed in the British for sure but not because of their lack of adoption of X and AI! 🤣
As a Brit, came here for say that, for once, we appear to be doing the right thing.
As an English speaking person: "came here to say" 😁
Brit: ChatGPT, if I Ieave X, will Europe let us back in again?
ChatGPT: No.
Brit: I'm not interested in AI.
