You're assigning emotions to people based on what you'd like them to feel, not on reality. For example, most americans probably don't feel shame about being american. But it's still a good decision not to go around showing off a bunch of american flags abroad, unless you want people to look at you in a certain way.

This is more akin to having a fake passport and pretending you're not American when asked.

> having a fake passport

No, there's no law requiring disclosure of AI use yet, as far as I know.

> pretending you're not American when asked

Many people do so for various reasons, for example saying you're Canadian when on vacation. Do you count that as evidence that they're "ashamed" of being american? Or that being american is automatically a bad thing, because sometimes people hide it?

So letting people know you’ve used AI is not a good thing? Best used in covert is what you’re saying?

Some people are just biased to the point that telling them something is AI when it's actually not will cause them to convince themselves such:

Interesting. And now this not-AI-generated-actually-real-cropped-Monet-AI-joke has been sold to an AI art collector for 40k. https://x.com/SHL0MS/status/2055281312697647223

The most amusing part of that experiment was that even Grok got convinced that it was AI-generated: https://x.com/grok/status/2054432219460977142

Sometimes it is not a "good thing" because it will cause people to react negatively. Whether the public's dislike of AI valid or not depends entirely on your perspective and the situation at hand.

Should people be scared of their food containing Red Dye 3? Yes. Aspartame? Maybe. MSG? Probably not. Dihydrogen Monoxide? Nope.

Should you feel "shame" for using AI to generate fake news? Yes. Art? Not really. See the numerous examples of people disliking famous human-made art just because it was presented as AI.

I don’t follow because all I see in other AI threads is how this is the future and people best adjust to the AI reality.

The hyper macho’ism on show by a large majority of pro-AI posters on other threads is frankly embarrassing and if I was trying to promote a positive spin on AI I’d be telling the bro’s to STFU.
