So, why are there so many posts asking ‘Can I do this with AI, can I do that with AI’ popping up on here recently? I thought most of the Fediverse would’ve been anti-AI based on its general demographics.

There’s a loud minority of anti-AI people. Most people don’t reflexively hate it, though.
Gonna call bullshit on this one, bud.
I’m going to call bullshit on your bullshit unless you’ve got some data to back it up. Why do you think most people “reflexively hate it”?
I reckon I have the same amount of data against AI as anyone has for it.
By which do you mean “nothing but vibes?” I’m not trying to support a particular position here, I’m just challenging yours. If you’ve got nothing to back it up then you’re just throwing your own personal opinion into the ring and that’s not really worth much.
Fair enough.
Nah, most people hate AI for one (or more) of a few reasons:
Billionaires own it, if it takes off it exacerbates wealth inequality.
It’s burning our planet down.
The data centers are using entire communities water.
The AI is ripping off human artists.
People are getting obsessed with it, and the more they use it the less capable they are without it.
I have no idea where you’re spending time that you think most people here like AI…
Those are reasons you hate AI, perhaps. But on what basis do you say “most people” hate it? Have you seen a survey, or are you simply assuming that most people agree with you?
Social media is extremely “bubbly”, and I’ve found the Fediverse to be bubblier than most in my personal experience. I suspect it’s because the individual communities tend to be so much smaller in population than corresponding Reddit ones, it’s easier for those loud voices to shout out and dominate conversations.
He didn’t say “here”. The truth is, most people aren’t against AI. Fediverse users are not an accurate representation of the public at large. Get out more.
It’s the case with much of popular views one sees on social media, especially the extreme one. I don’t meet people in real life holding the views I see represented daily on Lemmy. For example I don’t know a single person whose strongly against AI.
