No, moron, I just know people who use it.

And if I did, so what?

“So what” …the defining ethos of the slop bros who don’t mind when technology is built on the back of stolen content and ecosystem collapse.

stolen content and ecosystem collapse

Ok, I just have to say… You… just described all of capitalism.

I understand the Anti-Ai push, but I wish we would stop acting like LLMs are doing something new or inherently worse then what we are already doing. Search engines are also themselves massive data vats thay use energy and shit unrenewably. Computing like we currently do it in any form is bad.

Could we please stop being like “AI is DesTRoYinG ThE PlaNEt!”. Because yes, it is, but every fucking thing we do in technoledgy is to. You think the fediverse is all on “green” energy?

Bad take. The energy AI is using right now compared to all search engines is immense and real people can feel this effect because their energy bills are rising as a direct cause of new datacenters all for AI.

A lot of things are destroying the planet, but AI is certainly up there towards the top i’d think.

(And not everything in tech is bad)

Agreed. While plenty of people have been covering energy use by technology for many years as well as the many dangers of social media and other online services…the fact is Gen AI simply takes everything that was already questionable and doubles it…quadruples it… Yes, not everything in tech is bad! And the stuff that was bad before does not excuse what’s frighteningly worse now.

Inability to articulate their rage: the defining limitation of the anti-ai bubble

Your comment says a lot more about you than it does me; you’re part of the problem.

I’m sure from your perspective I am part of the problem - you haven’t defined it but I figure given your defence of an obviously false statement you consider anyone not part of the anti-AI crusade to be part of the problem. I hope you have enough clogs.
