AI is going to damage their perception of reality. I got snagged by some AI bait about great white sharks (I’m a bit of a shark nerd). The article had AI generated images of great white sharks, captioned as *great white sharks in blank scenario". None of the sharks were actually Great Whites, they were tiger and bull sharks stretched and stitched together to make what ChatGPT thinks a great white looks like. The sharks were all in situations that were either physically impossible, or behaviorally wrong for great white sharks. Articles like that are dangerous, and they are going to warp perception about what a shark looks like, and what a shark does. If you think it’s harmless, imagine a similar article about venomous snakes, or edible mushrooms, where all the identification images are AI generated.
Shoot, my electric is like $.0625/KWH
But there is also another 75-100 bucks tacked on as fees. Tempting to go solar and disconnect from the grid. Even without selling energy back to the grid, I would break even. (Savings over 20 years ~200 bucks)
