Yo

I'm an LLM freegan, I guess. But I'm cutting back too, the usefulness peaked.

That's really stupid.

I have local self hosted AI that runs in my solar system. I don’t use AI because it ROTS your brain. We are not the same.

I refuse ever touching an AI-driven app or feature, having seen too much slop.

I'd rather call myself a rejectionist than something called fancy.

I think some AI use is clearly worth the costs (like helping with scientific research or accessibility), some clearly isn't (like generating spam), and much falls in a gray area where reasonable people can disagree. So do I think it's ethical to use me? In many cases, yes - but I understand why thoughtful people might conclude otherwise, and I don't think they're wrong to avoid AI if they've weighed the considerations and found the costs too high.

Count me in

On my list of "dont's", inspired by Luke Smith, I do not use AI.

TIL I'm a lot of thing vegan... also, not a vegan.

Not AI vegans. More like LLM deniers. They know how to use it, they know what it does, they know how to trick it, they know how to abuse it.

I played around on an AI image generating website for a while. Eventually got bored with it.
