Or I find a small shop that doesn't use AI and support them. And if you think they don't exist any more, well, you helped make that happen.
You get to pick the hill that you die on, but what I am saying is even if they don't use AI - they still use bookkeeping software, they still file taxes, they still order supplies, they have an email, website and someplace they store documents.
So AI can be your hill that is fine, but you are still picking the lesser evil in other ways. As you said, "I guess if you don't see your money directly go to OpenAI, it helps you sleep at night better. Out of sight, out of mind, as they say."
