"I asked Claude what it thinks--"*BLOCK*

@susankayequinn But he's French - completely trustworthy! /s

@cejjacobs Claude is the AI that Anthropic developed by stealing my works (and millions others). Also orchestrated attacks on Iran.

[regguy@mstdn.social]

@susankayequinn I struggle to even imagine a use for those things in my life. I like thinking for myself and reading source information without the "AI" interpretation.

[cejjacobs@mastodon.social]

@susankayequinn I get why you are angry: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/mar/10/thousands-authors-publish-empty-book-protest-ai-work-copyright

(There are lots of other reasons for not asking AI anything, but I’ll add this if I try to explain why I do not want to use AI)

[susankayequinn@wandering.shop]

@cejjacobs oh, nice! Excellent work, authors!

[susankayequinn@wandering.shop]

For clarity:
I will block people who use AI.
I will block people who think AI "thinks" anything.
I will block people who prompt AI for the LOLs.
I will block people who report back "AI said this".

My friends in the Hell Times, do not use the theftbot for any purpose, for your sake and everyone's.

@susankayequinn it's the new "let me google that for you"

"oh let me requiem that for you: fuck off"

@susankayequinn @gazebo_c Doing online dating and as soon as I see anything pro-AI it’s an instant block.

[mgorny@social.treehouse.systems]

@susankayequinn, same here. I literally block randoms when I stumble on them praising LLMs on random threads.

@susankayequinn@wandering.shop I agree in principle, but what if I have the choice between using an LLM and not being able to pay rent anymore

[susankayequinn@wandering.shop]

@_r I doubt that's your choice, but if an employer is forcing you to use an LLM at work against your will, I don't expect you to be doing any of the AI boosterism that I see on social media. In fact, I do see people complaining that work is *forcing* them to use AI and that it's that or find another job (I think they should find another job, but I also understand this economy is insanely bad, partly because of LLMs).

I don't block those people because they're being held hostage.

[_r@donotsta.re]

@susankayequinn@wandering.shop that's reasonable <img class="not-responsive emoji" src="https://donotsta.re/emoji/neofox/neofox_heart_256.png" title=":neofox_heart:" /> thank you

[leslieburns@esq.social]

@GlasWolf @susankayequinn @gazebo_c Nothing that creative even. More like “I asked ChatGPT and…” or “Excited about AI” stuff.

@susankayequinn

This is the way.

[vinnyboiler@oldbytes.space]

@susankayequinn 'Why would I bother to read something someone couldn't be bothered to write?'

I do fear AI usage and suspected AI usage will be used by bad actors to further divide people. It's already happening but I feel it will get worse. Future art and stories will be looked at with an unhealthy suspicion, especially from the kids being born tomorrow growing up being normalized by this post AI slop reality.

I hate the effect AI will have on society.

[thesquirrelfish@sfba.social]

@susankayequinn @_r this is me and people who talk about driving, complain about parking it's complain about the price of gas. If you're forced to drive because of the social world we've collectively built, okay fine, but if you're in any way implying we need to build our encourage more privileges or advantages for drivers, very nope.
