LeahIt's interesting that the discussion about genAI is mainly about (poor) quality and the theft in tech. But if we think a moment about it and remove these two points from the equation, is genAI than good or ethical? [1/2]
No, the insane amount of power, water and other resources that are needed for this tech would still be there. That the the companies are owned by billionaires (who are and act unethical by design) in autocratic countries wouldn't be gone. That they are an even easier tool to subtly manipulate the society than social media isn't gone.... and so on. There is _no_ ethical way in our society for this kind of tools.
Flitzpiepe@leah Joseph Weizenbaum wrote down some important questions regarding to AI in 1972. I doubt that many people know about that or asking such questions themself:
