Wow, so just like humans eating animal products throughout our early existence as beings, AI is the default position? What kind of bullsh*t is this? Just because billionaires are forcing these llms down our throats?
The propaganda is unreal.

People who use the term "vegan" for somebody they consider extremist, ascetic, or annoying are really telling on themselves.
Side note: one of the most genius rebrands of all time was the way fake leather (which is often made from polyurethane, a type of plastic) suddenly became aspirational “vegan leather”.
Most vegan leathers are made from compostable materials, because (surprise, surprise!) many vegans are also environmentalists.
I have local self hosted AI that runs in my solar system. I don’t use AI because it ROTS your brain. We are not the same.
I refuse ever touching an AI-driven app or feature, having seen too much slop.
I'd rather call myself a rejectionist than something called fancy.

I'm an LLM freegan, I guess. But I'm cutting back too, the usefulness peaked.

Yo
Why does this use of the "vegan" word sound so condescending?
