  • I find it fascinating though that this narrative that AI is just stupid shit is so, so prevalent on Lemmy. I mean people here seem to be quite tech-savvy on average. Surely they must understand what an incredible development AI has gone through in the last 10 years? They must be smart enough to understand that LLMs are a tool that, if used right, are extremely powerful. See all the potential in medicine, chemistry, etc… But all I read is “LLM stupid parrot amirite LOL”… it’s almost infuriating. I mean, I totally get the whole economic point - big tech is screwing us over, I absolutely agree with that. But that is a completely different conversation that people here make impossible to have because they just focus on a ridiculously wrong aspect of AI which is that it is not the perfect AGI they read about in their comic books.

    I absolutely love the taste of meat. But I saw how animals are treated in the industry. So I don’t eat it because I don’t want to fund it. Would I eat it if I was guaranteed that the animal was happy all their life and didn’t notice being killed? Maybe. Probably. But that isn’t possible so I don’t. There are so many good meat alternatives by now that it really isn’t that hard anymore. For me it started with trying those and realizing they’re not bad at all. I would really encourage you to try a few of the available options. Beyond is really good. And when you know that no animal had to suffer and die for your short moment of enjoying a meal, it tastes even better.
