Honestly I'm leaning more and more towards advocating for people to use AI responsibly instead of outright rejecting it.

Yes the environmental impact is insane, but I feel like that's mostly because they keep pushing it to do more and more. But I think we're well past the sweet spot of what work AI should take off our shoulders. Remove too much and you end up with Meat Proxies.

Tho that only applies to things where only the result matters, like code. Pragmatic stuff, that's there to serve a specific purpose.

Art is the exact opposite. The process matters, the struggles, the successes, the setbacks. It's a thing of passion, and that can never be truly replaced by a machine.
