    Ai is literally making people dumber:

    And books destroyed everyone’s memory. People used to have fantastic memories.

    They are a massive privacy risk:

    No different than the rest of cloud tech. Run your AI local like your other self hosting.

    Are being used to push fascist ideologies into every aspect of the internet:

    Hitler used radio to push fascism into every home. It’s not the medium, it’s the message.

    And they are a massive environmental disaster:

    AI uses a GPU just like gaming uses a GPU. Building a new AI model uses the same energy that Rockstar spent developing GTA5. But it’s easier to point at a centralized data center polluting the environment than thousands of game developers spread across multiple offices creating even more pollution.

    Stop being a corporate apologist

    Run your own AI! Complaining about “corporate AI” is like complaining about corporate email. Host it yourself.

      Run your own AI!

      Oh sure, let me just pull a couple billion out of the couch cushions to spin up a data center in the middle of the desert.
