Yes, it's me! I'm the very specific type of user, and I'm being swept up in the discrimination in the mad rush to hate everything AI.
You say you are being swept up like some sort of unrelated bystander but it doesn't look like your justification is too different from the typical ai user's justification.
Justification of what? Using the incredible technology created via the shared culmination of all human knowledge, on personally owned hardware, using clean, renewable energy? What needs to be justified in that?
A good amount without their consent yeah. You tried to justify it earlier in the comment chain by saying it's not an exact reproduction and that the cat's already out of the bag, which is what ai bros typically say to cope with that aspect.
That's not the scenario we're complaining about and you know it.
