> Why use Claude then?

I don't understand this question in response to the quote preceding it. He just explained why Claude was useful in this instance.

It isn’t clear from all the quoatage but it was meant to follow my own thoughts on the progression of the piece. (1) There is concern for the future because of AI (2) so anyway we used AI for fun and giggles... No wait, stop. Why enable the training and the development for such a non-essential little thing? If AI is so concerning?

Apparently because the concern is not evenly distributed.

Thank you for the explanation. I understand what you meant now.
I read the point as: if it's an existential threat that you've got principled objections to - why would it even matter that it's useful?
the entire piece is about nostalgia + this tension?
