With some trepidation, because I'm new here: beyond the harm to the environment--which is fucking significant--everyone should avoid using the slop vomitron simply to protect themselves.
There are many recorded instances of harm caused by use of GenAI bots, from psychosis and suicidality to avoiding life saving medical treatment "because (the bot) told me".
On top of which, we know it atrophies critical thinking in a hurry.
A bot in Ireland has scrapped my humble, one person, free wordpress blog almost nine thousand times over the past eight hours.
What a fucking time to be alive.
Not everyone can afford to say, "Fuck you, I will not let you exploit me through GenAI anything", but it's all the more important that those who *can*, actually do it.
