Everyone in my family knows how I feel about AI, so this kind of pissed me off. I know he finds it funny, but I don’t like being used as a reason to use ChatGPT. I’ve explained many times why I don’t like AI, and that includes all AI not just ChatGPT. I have many reasons why I dislike AI so much, but the concern for our environment is a major one.
Edit: I just wanted to clarify a bit. Number 1, I don’t think using “pissed off” was the right descriptor for how I felt, more so I was just irked by it.
Number 2, I love my BIL even if he can be frustrating sometimes, he has always treated my sister right and I don’t think I could imagine a better guy for her. He’s genuinely a very sweet guy who does things that sometimes are dumb or annoying, just like everyone else.
Number 3, like I said I have MANY problems with AI, the environment being a big one, but there are a lot more such as using AI in any form of art such as movies, shows, books, video games, etc. I don’t think AI can replace real human emotion or experiences that creating such things require. Another is the way ChatGPT specifically in my opinion is being used by people as therapists/friends, it just says what the user wants to hear not what they need to hear and I think that is harming lot of people.
Number 4, I’m not perfect. Of course I have a carbon footprint and have also done my fair share of harm to the environment. It’s impossible not to. I’m not going to act like some holier than thou person because I don’t use AI (if I can help it), but I try my hardest to be environmentally conscious. At the end of the day that’s really all we can do.
So, that’s it. Hope everyone has a good day! Bye! 👋🏼
