Summary:
I downvoted pro-AI comments in a post in leftymemes community. It was LLM generated polandball comic (Which is objectively pathetic as fuck) that showed up on my feed, blocked couple of users who I thought were unhinged, and have blocked the whole instance on my client after realizing how rabid these morons are.
I didn’t go looking for AI posts like a vigilante.
One user in question got miffed for being downvoted and banned me from places they moderate.
But don’t you get it? Once capitalism and its shackles are overthrown, AI will not be a problem. It will be a tool for communist utoparadise. 🫠
AI consumes more resources than Bitcoin, at this point. We are accelerating our own demise, all for the spectacle of watching a computer hallucinate on command. There is nothing more decadently bourgeoisie than that.

They should, though. The Earth is burning.

They can’t be trained on a laptop. It’s like arguing that beef can be cooked on an electric stove, and ignoring the emissions from the agriculture.

I think the same was said on ozone destroying gases and leaded gasoline. Look where they’re currently. Or should we also encurage the “anti-corporate” use of those? Maybe even stop our fight against big plastic, because open-source plastic making could be an advantage over the corporate stuff?

If we didn’t waste energy and resource on the AI, it wouldn’t be as accessible and advanced as currently is, which is fine by me, but not by those who think the AI is like a “little person in the computer”, or that a super AI will solve all of humanity’s problems, including those caused by said AI.

I feel like comparing AI to computers is misleading. AI can obviously be really good, computers can do so much more
Also, its not like all AI has to be so big, stealing from and competing with artists
