I don’t understand the people that make fun of vegans because they “don’t stop talking about it” and then don’t stop talking about how they hate AI and would never use it. You guys are AI vegans, you should understand the passion
edit: before dumbs come at me, I’m not at all supporting AI I’m just comparing the passion os subjects
I’ve said this before, but “AI vegan” is a pretty odd term. It’d imply that using AI is somehow a default, entrenched, normalised thing. That not using AI is going against the status quo.
This makes as much sense as calling Linux users “Windows vegans”. Go on. Go say that to some Linux user’s face, I’m waiting.
Once upon a time, users were united in their hatred of Windows and Microsoft. We worked together, played together, wrote terrible scripts together. But Apple released the iPod and everything changed. Now they’re just another slimy mega corp, other OSs are ignored and we’ve got to love Linux or love a distro. Can’t we just all just unite in our utter loathing again!?
You think “AI” isn’t the default, normalised thing?
People rarely click on links in search anymore, they’re happy to use the AI summary, iPhones have small LLM models on them, people use it to write reports, others use it to read those reports. Companies implement policy to mandate AI usage even if it’s objectively worse.
I didnt know that either but it makes sense. I had raised this as an “ethical alternative” in the early days before I knew about the environmental impact.

I used to be pretty happy with the little extracts provided under the links in the search results.
I consider “AI Vegan” as “AI models trained only on public domain works.”
Huh. Apparently a few of them exist. TIL.

AI vegan. That’s brilliant.
