@AeonCypher@lgbtqia.space the externalities are part of the production lifecycle and need to be addressed.If fast-fashion has to address unethical and life threat “sweat shops”, then the low bar for ethics has been set and expect more from life supporting tech.
I also use local only LLM for research, so I hear and understand what are saying - https://mastodon.social/@dahukanna/111724757544610839

@dahukanna@mastodon.social If I buy fast fashion second hand, then I'm not supporting fast fashion. If I'm using an open weight model, likewise, I'm not materially supporting its creation. Does that make sense? If I'm paying for a model (which I have) then I am materially supporting the harms. But an open weight model doesn't contribute anything to its originator.
