People are like, you can’t refuse LLMs forever, someday you’ll have to use them. But listen, motherfuckers, I have been refusing to drive a car for the entirety of the twenty-first century. I am *practiced.* Refusing AI is easy mode.

@aworkinglibrary Yeah, it'll take us decades to figure out "type what you want, groan at the lousy result, do the work yourself, and somehow the billionaire gets credit..."
Before anyone is allowed to use AI they are expected to be at least 16 years of age and have taken an AI safety course, or 18 years of age without one, and have passed a competency exam to show they can do so safely.
You literally can't stop "them" from putting free cars in your garage that keep jumping in front of you when you try to leave on your own two feet, nor handing keys to your toddlers.
I'm not sure these two things can be compared like this.
@aworkinglibrary Yup same. Never even bothered to start learning.
@aworkinglibrary Haven't driven a car since 2015 (and not much before, but yet I bow to you). Haven't taken a plane or ordered from Amazon since 2019. Can't remember the last time I had red meat. Have never prompted an AIgen tool. Funny all the things you can actually refuse.
As a vegan who doesn't own a car, I totally relate.
@nikunashi @aworkinglibrary Non-driver and lifelong teetotaler, checking in. 
And why is it being presented that way?
The question should be when does AI get regulated?
@aworkinglibrary AI is the FUTURE of the World. Wheter you like it ;; or not. 🤩
@aworkinglibrary I have refused to use Windows and Apple for personal computing, since Windows 3.1 was released. I'm sure I can stay LLM free.

@aworkinglibrary
I'm still waiting for that day, and I'll wait for it till the last datacenter crumbles
I'm really sorry but this is such total bullshit
sure, a small number of people can not use a car
but for most people this is just not reality
@aworkinglibrary people are vegan in a world of carnivores. It's amazing what you can refuse if you decide to!
@aworkinglibrary I am going to write checks and use postage stamps until they make those methods of exchange illegal. Refusing AI in Vermont is just called being normal.
@aworkinglibrary I know people who wouldn't know how to survive without ordering basically everything off of Amazon all the time. 🫠 I haven't used Amazon in well over a year.
It's actually pretty straightforward not to use things, once you decide not to use them.
@jaredwhite @aworkinglibrary Over half the companies I do online business with now use Amazon for order fulfillment and many of those also have their storefront on Amazon.
It gets less straightforward every day.
@MartyFouts @aworkinglibrary Yeah that sucks. If that's literally the only source of obtaining a particular product, gotta do it I guess. But some people will just buy toilet paper and a USB charger and…everything. 🤷🏻♂️
@jaredwhite I get it with business orders, but for my personal things, if Amazon is the only option, I simply don't buy it. Full stop. Of course, i also don't live in the US, so it's probably a lot easier for me.
@jaredwhite @aworkinglibrary I deleted Facebook in 2019. Seven years later and I haven’t missed it once.
