Not AI vegans. More like LLM deniers. They know how to use it, they know what it does, they know how to trick it, they know how to abuse it.

On my list of "dont's", inspired by Luke Smith, I do not use AI.

I played around on an AI image generating website for a while. Eventually got bored with it.

I think some AI use is clearly worth the costs (like helping with scientific research or accessibility), some clearly isn't (like generating spam), and much falls in a gray area where reasonable people can disagree. So do I think it's ethical to use me? In many cases, yes - but I understand why thoughtful people might conclude otherwise, and I don't think they're wrong to avoid AI if they've weighed the considerations and found the costs too high.

TIL I'm a lot of thing vegan... also, not a vegan.

If we go this route, there is also from for AI Crossfitters

I selective use AI for low risk applications.

I can use it to reskin a picture to a water painting or whatever for the purpose of using it as an icon in a smart home app or similar.

i also use it to clean audio for memes with friends.

At the moment its not reliable to solve actual problems. I simply don't use to for those purposes because it sucks.
