[ID: the 4-panel meme of Anakin and Padme in the Star Wars prequels. Anakin says, “intersectional community care is key to making change.” Padme, smiling, says, “so you’re still covid conscious and wear a mask, right?” Anakin stares silently at her. She repeats, with a concerned expression, “so you’re still covid conscious and wear a mask, right?” Text slightly edited for clarity with screenreaders. End ID.]

Personally I hate AI because it uses slave labor, is killing the planet and is making people stupid, but that's just me. The soulless art aspect is just one little piece of my grander disdain.

wait how does AI use slave labor? Do you mean the human works that are stolen and not credited or compensated? Because technically under capitalism everything is exploited but there are varying degrees

Aside from the scraping, AI tech companies, including openAI/chatGPT, have outsourced training their models to countries in the global south, specifically Kenya in openAI's case. These workers are working in sweatshop conditions for less than 2 bucks USD per hour. I'm on mobile, but if you search 'openAI Kenya slave labor' and related keywords, you can find multiple articles about it.
