@aardvark@ioc.exchange - No. This is the issue: Big AI (read: that has central compute in big data centers that destroy local environments and economies) are being forced on everyone through a concerted effort involving forced adaptation, govt subsidies, and corporate subsidies. The underlying goals are wealth transfer, compute control, and information control. Those in power and leadership that ignore this are at best complicit in furthering the harm and are at worst actively pushing, facilitating, and enacting harm. Those that use LLMs often see a localized and immediate benefit (eg in their work or daily convenience), but at a greater long term and deep expense. But while I don't think users should use LLMs, many don't have a choice and many folks would choose short term immediate gains over long term harm because they lack leverage and just have to survive. So, in the original post, I am specifically targeting the leader. Who at best is complicit. And at worst is at fault. #AI #Linux #Linus
