On: AI fake news complaining about how AI fake news is the death of real news

[Frieren]

AI is great at producing low value content. That low value content replaces the high value but high cost one.

That is horrifying and destroys jobs, removes expertise from the world, and makes our lives worse.

I do not see how AI could be a net positive either.

Wait, there's a law that says exactly that about money! Bad money always drives out good money (because the good money gets hoarded). AI as fake money, a funny coincidence.
