Let’s talk AI (not the fun kind)
The article below was written by me, contains my personal beliefs and ideas, and used AI to site a few sources.
1- “I will never use AI because XYZ…”
Facebook, and its parent company Meta, use one of the WORLD’S LARGEST data storage and AI infrastructures. Meta says it operates hundreds of EXABYTE-scale storage clusters (that’s HUGE) and handles hundreds of trillions of AI model executions every DAY. 👇

You are CURRENTLY using AI and data by having a Facebook profile. If you’re on facebook complaining about AI and data centers you need to cancel your account right now or you’re a hypocrite. If you comment on my FACEBOOK post about how AI is the devil, you’re a hypocrite. And I will call you out, as it discredits anything else you say. Plain and simple.
No, it is not the government driving AI usage, it is the private sector. Shopping, Amazon, Facebook, advertising. The US government trails behind the private sector significantly. 👇

2: “it’s not art.”
Well, neither was graphic design a few decades ago but people say it is now. A human had the idea, led and designed it. AI is just an aid in the human creative process.
And for graphic designers pi**ed at AI stealing their customers? You should be mad at yourself.
You picked a career doing something that people enjoy doing for fun. (Like soap making or playing video games) That’s never going to be lucrative.
Now that people who would like to create their own content have access and abilities they’ve not had in the past, they get to ENJOY making flyers and advertisements and pictures. It’s a new pastime. It’s creative. It’s fun!!
Some People who don’t enjoy it will still give their business to designers, But WHO ARE YOU to say that people can’t enjoy a fun new hobby? I enjoy making goat flyers immensely. And I’m way better at it than anyone I’ve seen that does it professionally. (IMO lol) You didn’t loose my business, because I never would have considered paying for it in the past. But I sure do enjoy it now!
3 “data centers are destroying the world”
I cringe at the thought of humongous buildings taking all my water and land too. But guess what? There are plenty of people out there who know that cooling and land prices are the top two cost inhibiting factors for centers, but they aren’t an issue in outer space, and they are working on how to make that happen right now.
The world is not going to be taken over by data centers because it’s not sustainable. Yes there will be some. But in the next 50 years they will advance technology past them. That’s how technology works.
4- “AI leaving human control and will kill us all.”
Well, let’s assume for a moment that the people programming AI know what they are doing and are actually monitoring and reprogramming for this as part of their jobs, shall we?
Let’s assume these “watchdogs” who are PAID to scare us about it are doing just that- their JOBS. They are being PAID to scare you, and still haven’t once uncovered a real threat. If they weren’t good at their jobs they would be fired and replaced. But they are good at their jobs. And this is the best/ most they can come up with?!. A few programs didn’t turn off when told. Ouch 👇

This is not a problem that freaking out and trying to control things out of fear will fix.
My parents didn’t hand me the world they grew up in. I will not hand my kids the world I grew up in. God chose THEM to be alive in this time, and they will be prepared for the AI challenges if and when they arrive. That’s not for me.
Below is a flyer I made myself. No, AI did not steal this business from anyone. I wouldn’t pay for it if I couldn’t do it myself. But guess what? I love making them. It’s fun. I use Canva and AI and don’t change anything about the goats themselves.
I believe I have the basic human right to make this for myself as a fun hobby, but I welcome anyone who disagrees to delete their Facebook accounts.
