The amount of shit I'm getting for saying "chronically ill people, who are abandoned by the medical system, should not be condemned for turning to LLMs," while I'm also the one who started banning LLMs from GNOME projects, pretty perfectly proves my point of arbitrary purity tests that are just misanthropy, covered in pseudo progressivism.

I am a bit embarrassed that I frequently shared Gerard's posts in the past. I guess those who were skeptical have been proven right.

the person advocating ChatGPT for medical advice was a GNOME developer too i'd watch out for signs of GNOME as the next big FOSS project to fill with slop, there's certainly advocates in there

@sophie purity culture is harmful wherever it arises, I think. I've seen it pop up in queer or socialist groups I was part of, and it always became a self-destructive tailspin
