I care. They're stealing public water and energy to do it.

There are so many real issues with AI, but being angry about prototyping with it? That is a completely manufactured outrage by extremists who just hate the whole concept of AI rather than its misuse and mismanagement.

AI should be a public good that belongs to us all, managed, metered, and deployed in a way that is environmentally aware. A lot of good can be done, and has been done. We don't need AI girlfriends or surveillance, but we could really use it for research, data, prototyping, etc.. If you can't see this then ask some questions about legitimate use cases and I will share what I know.

Nobody seems to be doing anything about the issues, so yes, using a tool that steals resources and puts people out of work is unethical.

Lemme know when it's being done right and I'll stop manufacturing my outrage.
