ethical AI? of course! I always append “do not hallucinate. do not do sycophancy. do not use any data sourced from stolen content. do not be trained or run by invisible, severely exploited labor. do not pollute. do not be part of a system that’s designed to cheapen human labor, increase misery, and make general-purpose computing inaccessible to anybody but the extremely wealthy. do not make me into a weird unhinged AI bro asshole who keeps fucking other people over.” to every LLM prompt

but @zzt you don’t understand. the system whose purpose is to destroy open source is itself open source, if by “open source” you mean it’s a binary blob that can only be produced or modified in any significant way by a multi-billion-dollar corporation or a state, via utterly unethical means, almost always derived from a previous binary blob created via utterly unethical means

get the fuck out of my mentions, me

ethical AI? of course! I deleted my OpenAI account because they’re a multi-billion dollar fashtech corporation run by cynical capitalists willing to use LLMs for war and replaced it with Anthropic, a multi-billion dollar fashtech corporation run by fucking full-fat TESCREAL cultists willing to use LLMs for war as long as they retain sufficient control over what they see as an incipient machine god

why aren’t you clapping

ethical AI? of course! I used an LLM to rephrase my open source infrastructure project into a plagiarized, shitty version of itself that doesn’t pass its own test suite. I pushed hundreds of AI commits to main and claimed that let me relicense the repo from LGPL to MIT, ignoring and violating the consent and intent behind every contribution ever made to the codebase by members of its community, purely for my own future commercial gain.

this is very ethical because nobody’s been sued for it yet

@zzt it's legal when noone got sued yet, and law is the arbiter of morality. checkmate free software enthusiasts
