       @dalias @burningTyger yeah. Beverage corporations taught people to "recycle" plastic bottles not because that fixes the plastic problem, but because they want you to think it's your responsibility, and that if only everyone sorted their rubbish properly, there would be no plastic problem. Because they want to keep selling overpriced beverages in cheap plastic bottles with no consequences.

       @burningTyger That said, I do always appreciate strongly principled personal choices! What you do in this regard is definitely good. I guess we just need to not turn this issue into another plastic bottle.@dalias

       @burningTyger @daliasMy current job involves coding on things I think shouldn't exist. (And I don't get much choice in the market, really, beyond not touching slophouses.)If, hypothetically, LLMs only had a climate, hardware availability, and labour market costs, I could see myself using an LLM sometimes at this job. I need to pay my bills, I don't care about the product, in fact lowering the code quality could be a benefit.But in reality the evil of LLMs goes so, so much deeper than that.

       @lumi i recently came across this doc, not sure who linked it (probably on fedi), and i haven't had the time to go through it thoroughly, but it does appear to list a lot of the reasons i abhor generative aihttps://github.com/Vxrpenter/AIMania/blob/main/WHY.md

       @gamingonlinux this hits too real and not even because of hardware prices
