Mind you, I'm not 100% against using Ai. But it should be used responsibly, and only on your local hardware without paying money to support them. This doesn't solve the issue that the models are trained unethical. I have a few local Ai models installed, but my hardware is weak and it is only semi helpful for simple questions or brainstorming, or looking at simple functions (programming) to help with refactoring. Nothing else though.
Before you accuse me of being a hypocrit, I never said nobody should ever use Ai tools ever. My initial comment was about being bad person if you pay these companies money and support them this way. But ultimately you have your own definition of bad person, and if that is the most important thing in the world for you. And no, I'm also not Jesus. lol
