    Some asshat out here calling themselves an "ethical AI vegan" because they only use corporate AI tools in "uwu smol" ways, and, I dunno, I guess they do a land acknowledgment before they boil a lake or whatever.

    If anyone is an "AI vegan" it's me -- I don't use these tools at all, ever, because they are unethical. Telling me that they are delicious is not going to make them ethical.

    Also, I will endlessly berate you about your use.

    That's veganism, you're welcome.

    Surely an "AI vegan" would only use models trained exclusively on data from plants.

      @jwz I prefer we make up a new clearer and distinct term like "authentist" or "anti-slopper"

        Someone who uses these things could be named an 'ai-er' or 'air' in short.

                  I get it, but even if I changed jobs the likelihood of that other job morphing to include AI use is high, so I'm not gonna feel _too_ guilty about doing the task I'm assigned, when it's sometimes literally "get me a CoPilot summary of X in format Y".

                    @jwz as an actual vegan I've encountered a depressingly high number of vegans who support LLMs because "at least they're not as bad as beef"

                              that may be true environmentally but it disregards the damage to our brains and to our trust and integrity.

                              it's so depressing that those speaking up for #AnimalLiberation have started pushing #AIslop, because truthfulnes is so important.

                              we will no longer be able to push back on »those #slaughterhouse videos are fake« if videos, photos and texts we're sharing are #disinfo slop half the time.
