Ondřej Mirtes@joeposaurus Come on, you could write similar lists about most things people do to function in a society. Like driving a car or wearing clothes or drinking coffee.
Larry Garfield@OndrejMirtes @joeposaurus Indeed, there is no ethical consumption under capitalism.
But we can still try to minimize our negative impact and be mindful of it. Electric cars, ethically grown coffee, non-sweatshop clothes, etc.
And GenAI is still new enough that "fuck that, no" is an option. At least until enough people shrug and do it anyway and give the rest of us no choice.
Ben Ramsey@Crell @OndrejMirtes @joeposaurus “At least until enough people shrug and do it anyway and give the rest of us no choice.”
I think we’ve already passed this point.
