Well I'm not so reactionary as some on here. I use Google search, which is part AI, certainly on formulating the answers to queries. This is on the PC (with W11) all the time for sorting out computer, phone and medical queries and find it most useful for a good , speedy start.
I agree that I hate it when trying to get an answer on a phone call to a Web-Site and you have to go thru AI first. As to AI generated images I've never tried to do that but expect that such false images were created manually by skilled Photoshop users before it.
How many jobs will it take away? thats a frightening thing and the rich companies and their share holders dont care. Its just another way to boost profits and get rid of more humans with their problems and demands. To me no worries as working is long behind me.
As to the W11 knockers well its still best for me. I spent time setting it up with Google help and You Tube videos and it works reliably for me. I tried to get away from it and went to Linux on a backup laptop and soon realized that it was going to be always a learning curve. I simply dont have the time and inclination to do this. With Windows I've been using it since the days of DOS and that familiarity helps. My know how comes and goes, it fades with time quicker as I have got older, but it gets a big boost every time I build a new PC and update the OS.
