alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Question 1/3

What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?

under 18, AI is a net positive

under 18, AI is a net negative

18-29, AI is a net positive

18-29, AI is a net negative

30-45, AI is a net positive

30-45, AI is a net negative

46-60, AI is a net positive

46-60, AI is a net negative

over 60, AI is a net postive

over 60, AI is a net negative

Remaining time: 4 days 4 hours

Question 2/3

How often do you visit or interact with museums/archives (whether in person or online)?

Frequently (multiple times per month)

Often (multiple times per year)

Occasionally (a couple times per year)

Rarely (once every couple of years)

Never :(

Remaining time: 4 days 4 hours

odyver

Question 3/3

If you saw a museum was using AI in exhibits, marketing, research, etc., would you be more or less inclined to visit that museum?

under 18, more inclined

under 18, less inclined

18-29, more inclined

18-29, less inclined

30-45, more inclined

30-45, less inclined

46-60, more inclined

46-60, less inclined

over 60, more inclined

over 60, less inclined

Remaining time: 4 days 4 hours

Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

Answered these as a net negative for all three, but I think there's a massive caveat for using AI in research. When I say that though, I specifically mean Analytical AI, NOT Generative AI. Using analytical AI in research to numbercrunch huge datasets and calculate trends and make predictions and etc etc is actually helpful. So if a museum started using analytical AI tools to further investigate large datasets that they have - I'd be totally fine with that. Imo, that's the correct use of AI, to handle numbers and notice patterns at that scale.

However, if a museum used AI to write their research findings or create visuals (aka generative AI), or to predict what each visitor would be willing spend on a ticket and adjust prices accordingly (aka a money-grubbing use of analytical AI) - then there goes their credibility, and any goodwill I'd have toward them too.

#I write AI policy for my org and have had the same conversations with my boss OP you’re not alone #my colleagues think I’m making up the fact that many people are AI skeptics #my opinion is that it’s complicated and my brain is to burnt to expand #*too #also too burnt to rewrite that tag #ai #I have yet to see a use for gen AI video or imagery (outside certain science applications maybe) that isn’t dumb as fuck tho and you can #quote me on that one

nature documentary but the narration is just weird enough to make you question it

you have to be in a certain specific mood to listen to classic rock because sometimes a guy is playing his guitar and you're just like shut the fuck up man

#one time I texted Lindsay to call me with a fake emergency because my coworker had brought his guitar on a work trip and I was being held #hostage in a hotel room #he straight up sang wonderwall I thought I was being punked

How do you feel about driving?

I can drive, I am good at driving, I enjoy driving.

I can drive, I am good at driving, I do not enjoy driving.

I can drive, I am bad at driving, I enjoy driving.

I can drive, I am bad at driving, I do not enjoy driving.

I haven't learned to drive, I think I would enjoy driving.

I haven't learned to drive, I do not think I would enjoy driving.

I can't drive anymore, I was good at it, I enjoyed driving.

I can't drive anymore, I was good at it, I didn't enjoy it.

I can't drive anymore, I was bad at it, I enjoyed it.

I can't drive anymore, I was bad at it, I didn't enjoy it.

#driving is one thing #I don’t love it (tho a country road on a sunny day is alright)#but PARKING????#if I could shrink my car around and carry it in my pocket and not have to park #like big box store style parking lots sure but I live in Montreal my dudes #if I don’t know the parking situation and it’s not metro-able and it’s an unreasonable taxi I’m not going #I’ve gone this long without having to parallel park between cars I’m not about to start now at the ripe age of 34 #also this is dependent on me driving my car or an equivalently small car #at one point the car rental people gave me a brand new SUV for no up charge as a treat and I almost had a menty b in the New Orleans airport #parking lot #but then by the time I had to return it I actually missed it because it was a current year model as opposed to my 2011 Mazda and it had so #many features #I used to travel to Newfoundland a lot for work and one time the car rental people gave me a minivan because I pissed them off #and I should’ve claimed undue hardship with my employer because driving a minivan in St Johns in winter is awful #like that city is straight up at a 45 degree angle and made out of blind corners #cathedral street more like Yer gonna need to go to the cathedral street amirite #on account of the car accident

Do you feel bad right now? Kinda listless, like everything is being dumped on you? Eternal misery that cannot be fixed? Try eating a potato. You'll feel a lot better.

Potatoes, while obviously the single most lifegiving crop in human history, have gotten a bit of an unfair rap in the media. Be it because of carbohydrates, not enough greenery, or the fact that everyone only eats them fried to a crisp in oil and heavily salted, it seems like there is always a chance for our so-called "truth tellers" to deliver a slam to the noble spud.

Of course, improving your mood will require cooking a potato. Eating them raw does not seem to make me feel any better. And that can be difficult, if you are already feeling pretty terrible. That's why I think we should replace the police with people who hand out a baked potato. They could have like a little oven or something with them and when you want one, you get one.

Now, now, I hear a lot of you saying: oh, but then who will arrest the criminals? That's scarcity thinking. There'll be no criminals anymore. If you're feeling like you might want to rob a bank, it's possible that you just need a baked potato. With chives, little sour cream, bacon bits? Any nearby Potato Officer will provide, and then you can go right back to having a productive life, doing some kind of weird hobby instead of threatening to shoot a bunch of people unless they give you money that you would just use to buy potatoes anyway.

So I want you to think about this the next time the city police budget comes up for renewal. That could buy a lot of potatoes. Hell, it could buy some fried potatoes. Damn, that sounds pretty good right now, doesn't it? Way better than having some kind of unaccountable stealth helicopter flying down your alley because some asshole didn't get to eat dinner this evening and has committed an unspeakable crime about it.
