Is there any amount of AI that can be considered acceptable?
It seems that there is so much blanketed hate about AI. But are there instances where it is ok to use it a little? Is it much different than using tools that already exist that can help you achieve the same outcome that aren't viewed as AI? I am respectfully curious to know other's views. We all can try to learn more so we can do better.
I know that there is concern about AI copying things, But if I write a letter myself, including personal details and stories and I put it into AI to edit... Is that bad? It's my own thoughts, words and experiences. AI just edits for grammar and maybe makes a suggestion of what I could add or subtract to make it more cohesive.
OR
If I draw a picture. My own idea, my own styling, my own color choices, but I upload a picture of it to AI to smooth it out and maybe fix a few proportions, is that still considered AI slop? What makes it so much worse than a program like procreate that helps you make smoother lines?
Oh and one last little thought... I have heard that a lot of water is used to cool down the machines, and I am sure I am a bit ignorant or naive about how things work. But isn't our water recycled thru water treatment facilities to be reused anyways? I mean even sewage gets treated and pumped back into our homes, so is there something that makes water used to cool down machines unusable?
