@internetarchive You could stop with this shit any time now

@internetarchive Other than money, what possible reason could you have to be promoting _that_?

Generating untold carbon emissions and exploiting global south labour to create this, then bragging about it here, is insulting. We've had climate models for generations of humans that have told us that's a bad idea.

Shameful. I hope you feel bad about this.

@internetarchive A lot of responses here are over-the-top and uncivil. I agree with all of them.

@internetarchive

The more questions you ask of ClimateGPT the worse the fucking climate gets.

Fucking hell.

@internetarchive what is wrong with everyone today holy fuck

@internetarchive Please. Not you, too. Especially you guys, I respect the hell out of your work. I do! But how can you not see that this kind of "AI" is highly unethical and is kind of at the opposite end of values you of all institutions should stand for? I am truly disappointed, especially as I already have donated to you and dearly want to support your work and mission. But not like this. I will not stand for you uncritically endorsing projects like these.

@internetarchive how about no?

@internetarchive congrats on cooking your brains on the fascism machine

@internetarchive did someone take over the board? What's going on here

@internetarchive This reduces my trust in the Internet Archive and makes me stop donating.

@internetarchive This goes directly against the Internet Archive's mission of facilitating preservation of media & knowledge for the future. There is no point in doing so if you also promote the use of a technology which damages people's ability to learn.

Also, a LLM is the wrong "tool" for the job of climate & long term weather analysis. Not even close. When you want something like this you should always ask a professional, in this case a climatologist.

Does anyone know another general media archival project I can share things with that might use that data more responsibly than Internet Archive is very clearly about to? I don't feel comfortable sharing media with an archive that has embraced such a destructive technology.

@internetarchive

You're taking the piss surely?

@internetarchive no thanks.

@internetarchive the fucking what

@internetarchive i have a suggestion about where this "specialized climate model" could be archived
