Some asshat out here calling themselves an "ethical AI vegan" because they only use corporate AI tools in "uwu smol" ways, and, I dunno, I guess they do a land acknowledgment before they boil a lake or whatever.

If anyone is an "AI vegan" it's me -- I don't use these tools at all, ever, because they are unethical. Telling me that they are delicious is not going to make them ethical.
Also, I will endlessly berate you about your use.
That's veganism, you're welcome.

I get it, but even if I changed jobs the likelihood of that other job morphing to include AI use is high, so I'm not gonna feel _too_ guilty about doing the task I'm assigned, when it's sometimes literally "get me a CoPilot summary of X in format Y". -

Why can't the person who asked for this do it _themselves_?!?! The amount of laziness and sheer objection to you know, doing this, is fucking ridiculous! -

@tsvga
that may be true environmentally but it disregards the damage to our brains and to our trust and integrity.it's so depressing that those speaking up for #AnimalLiberation have started pushing #AIslop, because truthfulnes is so important.
we will no longer be able to push back on »those #slaughterhouse videos are fake« if videos, photos and texts we're sharing are #disinfo slop half the time.

https://jwz.org/b/yk6V@jwz I'm impressed no one mentioned the "I use AI but only on my hardware so it's ethical" folks.

@jaystephens @jwz Fucking figures… Never thought of it that way. This forced feeding of shite technology is priceless when even people closer to the C suite don’t even want to use it

@jaystephens @jwz And don’t forget the ole favorite, one can totally blame AI for shitty work, and sleep well at night knowing they contributed nothing. It’s mind blowing. Oh well, let’s let these people dumb themselves down to the point where they forget how reproduction works and have to ask chatgpt….

https://jwz.org/b/yk6VDuckduckgo has an easy to find toggle to keep the AI function off when u search.
Anyone still using google for whatever reason can scroll over to News, or Web search and it won't automatically dump AI blurbs for you.
My understanding of this is superficial, feel free to correct me, anyone.
