minus-squareOrbituarylinkEnglish33•4 days agoIt’s a bit daft to ignore how fundamentally disproportionate AI’s current contribution is relative to its energy cost and global impact.
minus-square@Wrenchlink13•edit-24 days agoEspecially the irony that they’re ruining the environment in an attempt to replace human jobs with AI. It’s a double “fuck you” to the working/middle class.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-15•4 days agoYou could say that for so many things in our comfy western world.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-12•4 days agoMaybe, but then it also makes it hypocritical as fuck.
minus-square@MotoAshlink7•4 days agoBeing right and good is far, far, FAR better than the simple act of not being a hypocrite… I’d MUCH rather someone be a “hypocrite” by deciding to do good things later, than by being a hypocrite for wanting to do bad things… If you disagree, your morals are beyond fucked up.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-6•4 days agoStrawman. I’d rather do something with impact anytime than find a convenient scapegoat now. If you disagree, your morals are beyond fucked up.
minus-square@MotoAshlink4•edit-23 days agoNope, you’ve already explained how you are too stupid. Do better. Stop being a heartless moron. Being a hypocrite for a good reason is good. The fact you disagree is beyond pathetic. Sad.

That makes precisely ZERO of it OK.
