    You’re on a computer. You probably game too. You’re burning resources where ever you go. We need tools to fight fascists. I say use the tools we have. Without it, they have an advantage being able to create content and analysis. Also forests are fine. Don’t be dramatic. I’m not convinced that bots didn’t drive a lot of AI hate so that the left would hobble itself

      Ai uses more resources than that and the tech bros are very responsible for the current fascism and I’m not going to use ai slop tools that are quickly using up the rest of our drinking water.

      The Forrest’s are not fine. They burn down every fucking year.

          Okay? I really don’t give a shit to use the fascist tech bro slop machines. I don’t want it to run offline on my computer. I don’t want it to run at all. I think we should break its legs so it can’t even walk anymore.

          Fuuuck ai.

            It matters when your argument was that it uses water and more resources than playing games, when the reality is it does neither of them when used on your personal device.

            You’re complaining about datacentres not LLMs.

                Why. Like this is what I’m talking about. Some heritage foundation think tank spent a year telling you they’re taking yer jobs and drawing pictures of your women naked and stealing your water and now you’re just a zealot refusing to use something that clearly would be beneficial.

                And yet none of the reasons you’ve listed are about LLMs.

                At least the ‘it’s stealing art’ people actually have an argument.

                    Sure that was totally your next point after being ignorant with your previous one.

                    Now should we have the debate about how IP is a tool to exploit human culture and gatekeep usage of it? That art shouldn’t be a profit driven incentive? Collages are art, yet they use other peoples work to produce something new. Because that argument boils down to the problems of capitalism, not LLMs.
