This is such a dumb headline
Given how the media and tech bros talk/think about vegans, it’s insulting propaganda.
Please don’t call me that.
And please don’t invite people to meet me, either.
The Guardian is supposedly “left” and yet they’re following the scripts handed down by right wing extremist techbrodudes.
It’s almost as if its “leftism” is like most “leftism” in the anglosphere: complete and utter performative bullshit.
Vegan? Gross. I prefer to be called an AI Luddite, thankyouverymuch.
Not all instances of refusing something bad are of the same class.
AI and the News Industry: How The Guardian’s OpenAI Deal Signals a New Era.
The Guardian Media Group has entered into a strategic partnership with OpenAI, integrating its journalism into ChatGPT and rolling out AI-powered tools across its operations.
Completely non-biased on this subject I am sure.
This opinion piece is shit and it is pathetically trying to bring the term “AI Vegan” in vogue. This article adds nothing else to the conversation except regurgitating old shit.
The ethical and environmental reasons are secondary to the fact that LLMs are figurative shit and the bubble will burst in a year or so and anyone who comes to rely on ChatGPT to do their thinking for them is going to be shit out of luck.
I don’t use “AI” cause chat bots are stupid. AI has been fine for decades, the cars in Gran Turismo had sufficient AI to drive around the track. This modern definition is just horse shit for another attempt at Silicon Valley to claim they are superior than every other industry. Sam Altman is a fraud and modern “AI” gobeldyguk.
AI is also just… Trash.
It can’t do my dishes. It can’t vacuum the apartment. It can’t do my laundry. You can’t ask it information because it’ll just be wrong 20% of the time. It can’t automate all the annoying things in my life that get in the way of what I love doing:
Art.
But that’s the one thing that it’s designed to do.
But that’s the one thing that it’s designed to do.
And poorly, and unethically, at that.
AI vegans? I’m very much against AI but I’m not a vegan. I wonder if vegans like the term vegan used for this. I think I would be annoyed if I was one too
This sounds like a marketing attempt to align us modern Luddites with an already established “out group” to build a public perception against abstaining from planet killing slop generators.
