Comment on Meet the AI vegans: They are choosing to abstain from using artificial intelligence for environmental, ethical and personal reasons. Maybe they have a point

No, I didn’t make it up. Although I rather wish I did, because it’s quite catchy, isn’t it?

No, it isn’t, it’s fucking stupid. The author was kind enough to link the source of that shitty idea, and the AI/vegan parallels are, per said article: ethical, environmental and wellness concerns.

Gee wiz, I sure never saw people with those 3 concerns in regards to anything other than veganism!!!

ITT: people really upset at being called ‘vegan’ for some reason.

  It’s pretty clear that the author doesn’t intend it as a compliment.

    That sounds like a ‘them’ problem. Veganism is based.
