I want to stop using AI
I am already against generative AI (as in AI "art", videos, music, etc) and I'm not even a creator, but I'm currently using ChatGPT for some things. However, I have 4 problems with THAT:
- It makes me feel like a hypocrite.
- It hallucinates half the time.
- I have this fear that I'll get "left behind" by everyone else for not using it. I tried talking to a friend about this and they said that I should use it, otherwise I'll get left behind, but it just doesn't feel right to me.
- I heard that AI affects critical thinking, but now I'm afraid because of how much I've used it.
Any advice? What do I do?
