Here’s what I got: YOU ARE... The Union Organizer. patron saint: Cory Doctorow. Al is a real tool being used to extract real labor value from real people without paying them. You don't care about the singularity - you care about the artists, writers, and workers getting strip-mined by capital. You're not anti-technology. You're anti-theft.

      I think any other purpose is hammer looking for a nail

      I would agree with this last year, but as a programmer I think the models have become fairly capable in coding. Still not using it myself out of principle and not saying it’s a silver bullet either, but as a striking example I’ve seen how my employer’s marketing team have developed a new version of our public website (not the much more complex main platform, but not a simple landing page either) with Lovable from the ground up. My main hope these days is the current cost structure proving unsustainable for the AI companies to keep up and this becoming their demise in the end (see Ed Zitron), and not much consumers dismissing it as not good enough anymore. I guess that explains why I’m more to the right of that chart compared to you.

          I’m with you, but sadly I think you should ask yourself the question of how much the businesses care about these points. Not how much they should care, but how much they do actually care. For me as a developer that’s what matters the most, because I cannot maintain my abstinent approach for much longer in the current climate, something needs to happen and tip the balance.
