No, I Don't Want Your AI Assistant
I opt out of most prompts from sites and services to use their "intelligent" tools becuase I don't want them to harvest any more information from my use than is necessary. AI is showing up everywhere and I'm really concerned that there won't be anything without some kind of large language model (LLM) opt out.
Baldur Bjarnason shared a post today that Wordpress.com is now including an AI assistant that will make it easier to publish machine-written blog posts.
The machine-generated blob is going to swallow the entire Internet. Wordpress is a huge platform and adding this tool just means that spam and click farms will be able to pump out more junk faster.
I'm not really sure what I want to say with this other than I'm really disappointed we can't seem to find something - anything - more thoughtful to do or say with this new technology. I'm going to keep opting out, as long as that's still an option.
