The tech industry is realizing it needs to build agents based on what regular consumers want, not just what its AI models can do.

    Not only do we not care about it, we actively hate it.

      Are we considered “normal people” though?

        I often wonder as well because being a news reader makes me assume others are also following the news more closely than myself. When I test this theory by talking to people around me, I learn that maybe I’m more alone than I thought.

        At least with social media I get to follow the news with all of you, my fellow nerds

        Quite a few of the people I know and consider “normal” openly dislike AI.

        I’m not sure it’s a majority opinion buts it’s not an obscure one.

        I think Ai hate might be the single most unifying position in the west right now.

          I don’t think so. No average blue collar worker I know hates AI. They think its a fun, free toy.

              If you want to get mad about possible plans that have not yet been made, you need the increasingly rare gift of foresight

        I have at least one head, so I’m normal. You?

        This post has 255 upvotes. That’s basically nobody when you’re talking about what is normal.
