internet and also often inaccurate - and if you aren't already expert in the subject of the AI summary, it's unlikely the AI errors will be caught. AI companies warn that their tools can always give wrong results and those results should be verified. But since people are accepting or requesting AI summaries in the first place to save time, that motivation makes it less likely they'll ever check the results against a more reliable source. I've seen teachers post about students who got incorrect information from ChatGPT and refused to believe it was wrong even when shown encyclopedias with the correct information.
So I believe using AI summaries as a source is very harmful. And then there's the damage to the internet those AI summaries are doing.
Btw, since you're trained as a scientist, you're probably aware that sites publishing scientific papers are now offering AI summaries of papers, ABOVE the abstracts, for people who can't be bothered to even read the short abstract. And according to posts I've seen from scientists, those AI summaries often get their LLM-generated info completely wrong. But no one will know that unless they ignore the summary and actually read beyond it.
So I HOPE you don't approve of AI summaries on those sites. And maybe that will help you understand why I considef them harmful, period.
Even though you felt the information would help people enjoy the video, you're not likely to find something spat out by a genAI tool enjoyed in any thread about appreciating human-created work that didn't use AI (and the commercial NOT using AI was a point the OP specifically made). Just as it wouldn't have fit in if you'd decided to generate AI video of an audience wildly applauding that human-made commercial. It misses the point.
The anti AI people are just as bad as the AI lovers.
The anti-AI people are trying to stop greedy, unethical AI companies from stealing the world's intellectual property, sabotaging education and the economy and politics, enshittifying the information ecosystem, and harming the environment. Those are worthwhile goals. Liberal goals. They don't become any less liberal when AI companies and proponents are doing the damage.
And even though AI results can at times be accurate, it's all slop because using genAI is a technological crap shoot with no real intelligence behind it. As some experts say, LLMs are always hallucinating, but some of those hallucinations are more accurate than others. Some other experts call these AI tools bullshit machines.
Humans can do better, and forums deserve better, than genAI. Do you realize how fast this board would fill up with AI-generated replies if it was considered okay here? It could turn into what in effect would be a bot message board.
