@budududuroiu @mirth @jenniferplusplus "The plague is here. Let's just live with it" does seem to be a recurring sentiment, but it doesn't change that it's a plague.

@jedimb norms are downstream from power. Current power balance is shifted towards frontier labs and hyperscalers, norms around personal computing (RAM prices) and open source software (AI slop floods) are dictated by them. Moralising AI use with no power to back it up is useless, gatekeeping is power because it says "want to contribute to this project, abide by our rules" https://www.joanwestenberg.com/the-case-for-gatekeeping-or-why-medieval-guilds-had-it-figured-out/ @mirth @jenniferplusplus
