Hey HN, so I got a few friends that completely hate on AI, which I partially get, AI-Art is taking jobs and looks ugly, but what is too much for you and how much AI do y'all use? Id like to understand the people that hate on AI, but most of the time their arguments are water usage, tho they all eat meat and buy new clothes which can be read about here https://bryantresearch.co.uk/insight-items/comparing-water-footprint-ai/ Also another question would be if being vegan/vegetarian would make AI usage less 'bad', or if its just a general hate | |||||||||||
