My 9 year old and his classmates have started using “that’s AI” to mean “I don’t believe you.”
Me: we’re having dinosaur meat for dinner
Kiddo: that’s AI
That worries me. We are raising a generation habituated to rejecting information that doesn't suit them.
Sure their bullshit detectors catch a higher proportion of the bullshit, but along with this is a higher rate of false detections.
When real data and real evidence comes out that doesn't fit their preconceived ideas, will they process it and allow it to affect their views? Or will they say "That's AI."
Might AI further enable and normalize preemptive rejection of facts?
