It’s like taking the last syllable of the name of the hotel and tacking it onto every scandal, because you didn’t understand that it’s part of the name of a hotel, and not some sort of indicator of scandal.

I try not to use AI at all. I am not missing out on anything.
I also try, but it is invoked on my behalf. For instance, at work if I make a pull request now multiple AI bots are summoned to give an analysis of my code changes. It's extremely verbose and annoying, and I think basically nobody reads it because all it does is just spam the comments section with way too much text.
I vehemently hate OpenAI, ChatGPT, et al. At least it's funny when it summarizes my changes as significant improvements that improve code maintainability. I guess getting glazed by the bot in a way my manager can see is helpful to my career? Though honestly he probably also doesn't read that shit. So glad all this energy is wasted for nothing.

Just wait until you have an employer tell you that you need to write up a summary of how you used AI in your every day activities to save 25% of your day to work on other activities.
You'll use AI to write the summary and then soon discover that your employer is a tool and is paying more than double your salary to keep that AI around to do literally nothinf 98% of the time it exists.

"AI vegans"
ffs, just publish an article with a single clownemoji for the same effect.
The big corporations desperately want AI to be popular because they've thrown literally insane amounts of money at it and still don't know how to monetize it.
There's going to be a huge push to make it seem like everyone loves it and it's weird not to use it constantly
It's going to go horribly and come off like that "fellow kids" meme, exactly like this headline

It’s quite common for me to be annoyed, angry, or upset at a headline writer. Then there’s the feeling I got reading “Meet the AI vegans.”
Whole new level.
That's because the author seems to be a journalism vegan, writing vegan and self-awareness vegan.
I refuse to believe this title is anything other than engagement-bait, personally.

"Have you ever been called an AI vegan?"
"No... Shit no! I believe saying something like that'd get your ass kicked!"
People just going about their business living their lives as they have for many years...
Silicon Valley: Hey fuck you. Also I came up with a dumb nickname for you.
Shitty click baity title
'AI vegan'....
Where I come from, saying something that stupid will get you killed.
We let environmentalism become an individual issue, and that was a mistake. Can we not do this for AI? It's a society-wide problem, not something you can solve by measuring your own personal AI footprint.
how to belittle and minimize a very serious thing: call any protesters of it a " ___ vegan"
They are "journalism vegans". They are choosing to abstain from actual journalism for clickbaiting, herd mentality, and personal lack of skill reasons.

Stupid-ass title.
Come on Guardian... why frame it like that? Folks using AI should be called out as strange.
I'm choosing to abstain because it's shit. The ethical things are just a bonus. It produces inaccurate information and bland soulless images.
It doesn't produce information, it produces text. Expecting that text to contain information is a fools errand
I've never used AI, even when wanting to give it a try. There was either a queue or a fee, or must click-wrap agree to terms and conditions for free two months and I wasn't going to do those.
I never did an NFT either.
Abstaining from a thing does not make one a vegan. That's not how any of this works.

Its neither for me, i just dont like getting wrong information and AI is giving tons of it.
Also its not intelligent it just fucking sounds so
If anyone says the words "AI Vegan" to my face, I'm throwing shit.
AI vegan is not a thing and shall never be.
The correct term is Technophile. Anyone obsessed with tech would never hand it off to a third party to do when they can go through the joy of learning themselves.
I'm technophobic. Fucking clankers
People who care*
