Don't remind me again today

Machine intelligence has created this wild cultural split that's genuinely fascinating to watch unfold. You've got billions of users worldwide who've woven it into their daily routines, relying on it for everything. Then there's this whole other camp—and they're *loud*—who despise the technology entirely, treating anyone associated with it like they've committed some cardinal sin.



What strikes me most? There's literally no historical parallel for this. Think about it. Past tech revolutions had skeptics, sure, but nothing quite like this scissor effect where society cleaves so dramatically down the middle. One side sees utility and progress. The other sees existential threat and moral failure. Same technology, completely opposite realities.

The divide isn't just about preference anymore—it's become identity. Cultural battleground stuff. And we're all watching this experiment play out in real time, no script, no precedent to guide us.

NGL, this point is spot on, but that's really how Web3 is... On one hand, people can't stop farming like crazy, on the other, they're cursing everyone as scammers, and there's no middle ground. Honestly, this sense of division has been around for a while, it's just that AI has amplified it. Now, anyone who dares to say they're genuinely all in is seen as a fool. It's so damn absurd.

This split is indeed absurd, but to put it bluntly, it's a struggle for discourse power—whoever has the loudest voice wins. --- I agree, we've never seen such opposition in history, one side enjoys the benefits while shouting doomsday theories... --- Identity has been politicized; opposing AI is now akin to a religious belief. --- To be honest, it's a bit exhausting, both sides are too absolute, it's a black-and-white mindset. --- That's why I firmly stand on the Web3 side, because I see through the game of power and discourse. --- The lack of precedent is the most terrifying... we are like newbies in an experiment. --- So how does the other side see it? Are they really just afraid of losing their jobs or what? --- The more I look, the more I feel that the real division lies not in technology, but in interests.

Ngl, this is a modern religious war, where neither side can persuade the other.

Ngl, this split is ridiculous. On one hand, people are using it like crazy, while on the other hand, they are criticizing it fiercely, with no gray area in between. It feels like a religious war... it's really an ideological match-up. When have we seen such extreme polarization in history? In the past, during technological iterations, at least we could debate. This time, it directly identifies with identification.

ngl this division is really amazing, feels like watching a modern version of a religious war Actually, it still boils down to the problem of information cocoons... No wonder some of my frens can't talk about this topic at all, they just argue as soon as they open their mouths Let's see who can laugh last... This generation of humanity really has no hope of unity, haha

ngl this sense of tearing is indeed amazing, it feels like the whole world has been sliced in half by AI, and no one can be neutral. Speaking of which, I've really never seen any technology that can divide people so completely, it feels even more intense than the wave of the internet. Identity politics reaching AI is indeed a bit crazy, is anyone who uses it a traitor? This logic is just too extreme. If this thing really cannot be reconciled, then won't we have to live in this kind of tearing all the time... Wait a minute, will we look back at this period ten years later and see it as childish, just like we see "Should the internet enter schools" now?

This split is really too extreme, on one hand enjoying it nonstop while on the other hand shouting doomsday theories, it really cracks me up.

ngl this sense of fragmentation is really absurd, it's like playing a parallel world game Yeah, with this technology, some people are sleeping with it, while others want to smash it, there’s simply no middle ground Historically, I've never seen such a divided scene; in the past, people could at least sit down and chat As for identity recognition, don’t expect to persuade anyone, everyone stands in their own camp This is no longer a technological dispute; it’s just tribal warfare 💯 To be honest, I actually look down on those who engage in moral coercion, shouting "moral failure" every day; do they really use it comfortably? It's really crazy, society is live testing its own bottom line.
