If you just mean they come across as annoyed by AI, that's true, but that's also way too wide of a category to infer basically anything else about them.
I agree they are stealing it but I also see the benefit of it for society and for myself.
Suckerberg downloaded terabytes of books for training, while people around me got sued to hell 20 years ago for downloading one mp3 file.
and Zuck isn’t sued for downloading either, he is sued for reproduction by the AI not being derivative enough, but so far all branches of government support that
FB and so are CIA fronts and they can do anything they please. Until they hit against Disney and lobbying giants and if a CIA idiot tries to sue/bribe/blackmail them they can order Hollywood to rot their images into pieces with all the wars they promoted in Middle East and Latin America just to fill the wallets of CEO's. That among some social critique movie on FB about getting illegal user data all over the world to deny insurances and whatnot. And OFC with a clear mention of the Epstein case with related people, just in case the Americans forgot about it.
Then the US industry and military complex would collapse in months with brainwashed kids running away from the army. Not to mention to the Call of Duty franchise and the like. It would be the end of Boeing and several more, of course. To hell to profit driven wars for nothing.
Ah, yes, AIPAC lobbies and the like. Good luck taming right wing wackos hating the MAGA cult more than the 'woke' people themselves. These will be the first ones against you after sinking the US image for decades, even more than the illegal Iraq war with no WMD's and the Bush/Cheney mafia.
The outcome of this? proper and serious engineering a la Airbus. Instant profit-driven MBA and war sickos being kicked out from the spot. OFC the AI snakeoil sellers except for the classical AI/NN against concrete cases (image detection and the like), these will survive fine, even better because these kind of jobs are highly specific and they are not statistical text parrots. They can provide granted results unlike LLM's prone to degrade because the human based content feeding needs to be continuous, while for tumour detection a big enough sample can cover a 99% of the cases.
R&D on electric vehicles/energy and nuclear power like nowhere else. And, for sure, the EV equivalent of a Ford T for Americans. A cheap and reliable one, good enough for the common Joe/Mary without being a luxury item. A new Golden Age would rise, for sure. But the oil mafia will try to fight them like crazy.
A fundamentally anti-civilisational mindset.
Its a little bit hypocritic which often enough ends in realism aka "okay we clearly can't fight their copyright infridgments because they are too powerful and too rich but at least we can use the good side of it".
Nothing btw. enforces all of this to happen THAT fast besides capitalism. We could slow down, we could do it better or more right.
What LLMs are NOT is intelligent in the same way as a human, which is to say they are not "AGI". They may be loosely AGI-equivalent for certain tasks, software development being the poster child. LLMs have no equivalent of "judgement", and they lie ("hallucinate") with impunity if they don't know the answer. Even with coding, they'll often do the wrong thing, such as writing tests that don't test anything.
It seems likely that LLMs will be one component of a truly conscious AI (AGI+), in the same way our subconscious facility to form sentences is part of our intelligence. We'll see how quickly the other pieces arrive, if ever.
Now, I don't believe AI will ever amount to enough to be a critical threat to human life, you know, beyond the immense amounts of wasted energy they propose to convert into something more useful, like a market crash or heat and noise, or both.
Not sure how you can call someone opposed to any of that "anti-civilisational" matter-of-factly.
