@lauren hence the bitter Thank you for Smoking mortgage quote in the blog post. If I had been able to #FIRE and I'm just doing this for fun I'd be able to be more principled on this.

So I mostly agree with you. "If you voluntarily use these systems" is key here - until the VC-driven AI craze meets its inevitable crash - maybe the energy crisis thanks to imperialistic hubris this year will trigger that - a lot of us are *coerced* to a greater or lesser extent to use these.

I'm actually looking for AI-free projects to contribute to when I'm not being paid to do open source, so I'm watching the @debian and @guix discussions around AI policy with a mixture of curiosity and trepidation.
