Funny how "AI" advocates are always like "yeah but if we ignore the negatives for a moment ..."

That's fiction then. I might as well talk about how great fossil fuels are assuming they don't have any negative effects on the Earth's climate.

And you're free to write fiction, but don't try to sell it to me as real.

@aesthr I've run into a lot of AI defenders who act like the only reason people oppose AI is on copyright grounds. I genuinely have no idea why they are under the impression AI will spearhead a post-copyright utopia that justifies its environmental impact, but somehow "AI is not teechnically stealing" fails to be a compelling argument.
