Hey just so you know, comparing the earth-killing stealing machine to a wheelchair is both ableist, wildly offensive, and at best a misunderstanding of the purpose of both!! Please leave us the fuck out of your justifications - ThreadSky

Like I said I have only used it the first time recently. I was hesitant at first but I'm not afraid of using other tools.

It was efficient & it help structure something that was more effective on a topic I have spent years working on reducing.

No different from glasses, or a wheelchair. A tool.

making a big sign that says "generative ai is NOT assistive technology" maybe with a little note in a smaller font that says "if you're trying to use it as assistive technology you have been misled about its reliability and you deserve real assistive technology"

even if it did work well as a tool, it can only function that way because of massive amounts of theft/plaigiarism and environmental destruction

m00psy.bsky.social•2 days ago

both of which are way more than reason enough to still not use it

Look, I’m just happy to have been made aware of the intellectual property theft and environmental havoc my cane has been engaging in. Who knew?

We are not your shield for the bad decisions you were going to make anyway. Do whatever you’re gonna do, I can’t stop you, but keep us out of your mouth while you do it

I'm continually mad at how successful the smear campaign against the luddites was, because those people recognized the difference between "a tool" and "a tool of the owner class"

I have disabilities. I have had to use wheelchairs several times.

measuredandslow.bsky.social•1 day ago

Okay? Being disabled doesn’t mean you can’t be ableist, nor does it make you correct.

Do you even want to know WHAT I was working on? Why in this case...this ONE time I used it, why it is regarded as a tool? Because it is very important.

measuredandslow.bsky.social•1 day ago

No, it isn’t. There is zero use case that would make the plagiarism machine okay to use. There is *nothing* that important. If you want to use it, nobody can stop you, but don’t hide behind disability. Plenty of us are doing our own work.

The program I had already written years ago but the bit I didn't know is where to start, the costs involved, all the jobs involved. On a small scale for a pilot program and a full scale across the country I'm in.

So help in working out the process, jobs & financial costs in creating a program for victims of domestic violence to have a place to escape, on going help & to create a safe space for children of DV to learn their basic math, reading and writing. So they don't fall through the cracks. Good enough?

measuredandslow.bsky.social•1 day ago

No. I don’t know what is confusing about this. There is *no* justification. At all. You are stealing people’s work AND helping to destroy the planet, using a machine that is known to be wrong at least as often as it’s right. There is no use case that will ever be good enough.

Narrator: It was Annasis who was the tool all along
