You can resist.
Upvote quirky projects, call out fake hype, make your disapproval visible, call AI slop what it is.
The term AI has become a liability in some circles, so let that be proof that you don't have to just accept whatever AI companies tell us.
I screamed in people's faces - alienated half my relationships. And absolutely nothing I did had any impact whatsoever. And so I learned to accept the things which I cannot change.
You need to know - the hype isn't fake, my friend. Those stories are real. If you genuinely want to resist, you need to shed your bad information. Good luck.
