Using AI is actively harming people, stop using AI

That’s not gonna happen until they, at the very least, crash and burn. There are some very competent tech people at Microsoft, and none of them are at the C level or upper management.

It would be very naïve to think they won’t go against Wikipedia and the fediverse at some point unfortunately…

It’s exploiting copyrighted content without a licence, so, in short, it’s pirating.

Not shitting outside, and catching or dying from treatable diseases, and income tax if they get a job. If they don’t have to live outside, everyone benefits.

“the whales are communists, kill them all”
