    It’s AI generated and most Lemmings are enraged by AI for reasons I don’t fully understand, possibly due to misinformation about its environmental costs.

      The rage is wild. However, once in a while AI has its uses. I could spend a lot of time producing an image from scratch on Photoshop which used AI or get told it’s AI. I guess making images is bad unless it’s hand drawn artisan imagery. 🤷

      People on Lemmy exist at a very high technical level. This place is full of people with advanced degrees in STEM.

          That your assessment is very wrong. You may not understand the average person here or who they are.

            I’m aware many people here have a lot of tech knowledge. I don’t see how that proves what I wrote was wrong. Firstly because there are also a substantial number who don’t fit that mold. And secondly because experts can also get caught up in groupthink and misinformation. Especially on topics outside their specific subfield.

              Give up, there’s really no point trying to argue on the internet with anyone that has such a smug superiority complex.

              People who are into technology tend to know a little bit about a lot of things that still rises well beyond the level of the average person. You don’t get onto Lemmy without having some tech ability unless someone helped you set it up.

              You said:

              possibly due to misinformation about its environmental costs.

              You made a very strong set of assumptions:

              • The environmental cost is exaggerated

              • People are misinformed about it

              You then failed to substantiate your claim with any argument or evidence.
