Meet the AI vegans. They are refusing to use artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasons
-
Kiiiinda confused. Am I fly? Nah, I am a human. And most of us eat mixed diet. That's normal. Baseline. So, eating only veggies is wacky. Same with eating only meat.

There has to be a catchier name than AI vegans...

Yes, it sounds like marginalizing normal reasonable people.

The better term would be "LLM gobbling fuckheads" for those who use that stuff and believe it has anything to do with "AI"
sloppers

Also too ambiguous of a term, could also mean an ai chatbot that pretends to be a vegan person.

yeah, lol. that's what i thought it meant when I first read the post
-
Im also a gun vegan, a car vegan, a facebook vegan, an exercise vegan (unfortunately), a windows vegan, ... just not actual vegan.
I feel like thats a bad way to use the word vegan.

While billionaires keep using their private jets.
Im a proud jet vegan myself, not that i have a choice, but still

So I'm gonna play devil's advocate here and say that it is. Look at your teeth, humans are omnivores. Cutting out half the diet you evolved to consume is in fact a contriarian position. Not that I have any issues with vegans or vegetarians, just from an anatomical point of view we were designed to eat some meat! I do think calling people who don't use AI "AI vegans" is absurd though, as diet has absolutely nothing to do with use of AI. Would be more accurate to say their AI fasting if we're gonna use food related terms.

ha so I'm a double vegan

I played around on an AI image generating website for a while. Eventually got bored with it.
You very quickly see its limittions

People who use the term "vegan" for somebody they consider extremist, ascetic, or annoying are really telling on themselves.
Side note: one of the most genius rebrands of all time was the way fake leather (which is often made from polyurethane, a type of plastic) suddenly became aspirational “vegan leather”.
Most vegan leathers are made from compostable materials, because (surprise, surprise!) many vegans are also environmentalists.

Most vegans are normal reasonable people too.

Imo vegan shouldn't be seen as derogatory. I'm not one, but got a lot of respect for most of em.
it shouldn't, but years of lobbying and demonization online certainly have made it so

LOL gen z kids are fucking hysterical.

Good to know, I'll go ask one if the profs in our school of built environment for more info. See if they can offer more insight there.
If you're interested in this topic, I simply must plug the Adam Something YT channel
He makes funny but also serious videos about urban and transport planning, and whatever new "trains but worse" transport idea techbros came up with this month. -
That's a weird way to spell luddite
-
"refuse" lol as if there were a general requirement to use this shit
This caught my eye as well. Haha. Some people are constantly looking for a machine to rage against.

Missed opportunity to coin the term “Aitheist”
Fools. -
lol ok. I've literally done it. Please, go enlighten yourself on google.
"Enlighten yourself" you mean make your argument for you?
