It's the same as any other commercial tool. As long as it's profitable the owner will continue to sell it, and users who are willing to pay will buy it. You use commercial tools every day that are harmful to the environment. Do you drive? Heat your home? Buy meat, dairy or animal products?
I honestly don't know where this hatred for AI comes from; it feels like a trend that people jump onto because they want to be included in something.
AI is used in radiology to identify birth defects, cancer signs and heart problems. You're acting like its only use-case is artwork, which isn't true. You're welcome to your opinion but you're welcome to consider other perspectives as well. Ciao!
I mean, machine learning is great. I was replying to someone talking about using generative ai to make photos, not a doctor or a data scientist, to my knowledge.
I kinda love that response though, I'm going to save it. You can tell it's not even from a chatbox, it's just kinda too unhinged. Like 'oh you are curious how I view the ethics of my actions? You must hate cancer survivors.' I think ai bros do like to think of themselves as pushing the bounds of science, they don't see themselves as consumers.
Lol I think I struck a nerve
Did you just respond to your own comment about "striking a nerve" ? lol.
Found someone who's more desperate to fit in than educate themselves about what "AI" means. Welcome to the club buddy, you made it! Congrats!
Our paper bills are money. "Truth" or not? If we as a society stop adhering to that system, the paper stops being money.
I think you're assuming that your philosophical view is objectively correct, and it's not. Sorry. The world doesn't revolve around you and you can't always be right. Hope that makes sense.
Love and blessings be upon you :))))))))
But your philosophical view is objectively correct, right?
We have already stopped adhering to paper money. Paper bills aren’t actually money, otherwise they would have static value, it’s a proxy for currency that is now based on debt, which changed from the gold standard. You can also have a lot of money and not have a single piece of paper that represents it and not being hindered in any way from accessing and using that money. The way that money as a tool is functionally used has not changed, though, and paper still works as money.
Money is not art, though. The fuck does any of this have to do with LLMs and dispersion frauds?
Who are you, again?
Someone smarter than you.
Are you sure?
Would you care to address my argument, rather than being an entitled condescending little shit?
Entirely certain.
Then why is your moderation history several pages long? Mods have acted on you more times than I've posted on Lemmy. Is breaking sidebar rules something a smart person does?

Because I’m an asshole, an asshole smarter than your false civility.
lol
