i was under the impression that were explicitly against genAI but i found that some people are actually VERY pro genai and quite dismissive of its risks. this happened on lemmy but i saw people getting downvoted for saying that genAI in its current state is harmful to the environment. i saw the old bullshit of how ”i use AI for art because i cant draw”, it was crazy. i called someone a Promptitute and someone unironically told me not to say that, just so much. so can everybody pls affirm you dont support that crap.
another user straight up admitted that they use AI as a friend and to gn to… i dont care how much we have in common ideologically, i cant support you gning to chatgpt and thinking its your friend…
Calling clanker a slur is the same as calling cracker a slur. The exact same amount of systemic harm is being perpetuated by those two words.
I thought Clanker was a Star Wars slur thing that the clones would say to the droids. Unless i’m misremembering stuff.
Could be, I’m not a big star wars fan and don’t base any of my worldviews on it. The point still stands though, star wars droids are a fictionally oppressed class in the same way that white people are a fictionally oppressed class.
I think calling chatbots clankers is stupid but calling it a slur is minimizing the actual harm to real people targeted by real slurs
Crackers will make it into a slur.
Someday in the far far future when actually sentient robots exist and are oppressed, yeah probably
