The ethical stuff is a real issue, not just how the training is derived but wealth inequality being accelerated and so on.
That said if you find yourself in a place where it’s “use AI or lose your job”, using AI is probably best unless you’re independently wealthy already.
And if you’re in that place, don’t use it wrong. Make sure to train the AI you’re using on correct (and ethically sourced) materials. GPTs your company pays for will have a path to this for example.
Just asking an untrained AI specific questions about your work isn’t likely to end well. And then people give up on the tool and eventually lose their job over it.
It sucks ass, and I expect down votes for even sharing this. But I know too many people who have been let go and are really struggling to find another job. So do what you need you do to keep feeding your family.
And vote against the assholes putting us in this place. Join a Union if you can, etc.
