@anildash@me.dm @reflex@retrogaming.social I think perhaps the problem that hasn't been articulated is not that the "lovers" are choosing "bad tools" in the sense of unreliable results, but rather that the negative externalities of the tools seem to outweigh their benefits, and it's the rest of us who have to bear all those costs. So yes, I will happily say it out loud - I want those users to not have the option to use "AI" in the ways that are currently being offered.

@anildash@me.dm @reflex@retrogaming.social Not least amongst those externalities being that "AI" as offered is yet another way for capital to commoditize labor, resulting in a further acceleration of the massive shift of value away from the working classes, directly to the very rich. And the environmental costs, and the plagiarism, and the unreliable results. It's too much of a cost, and I refuse to bear it, so yes, I will fight this technology, and every corporation shoving it needlessly into their products.
