> “drunk driving kills a lot of people, but it also helps a lot of people get to work on time, so it’s impossible to say whether it’s bad or not”

No, no that doesn't work. Nobody thinks that.

"Drunk people who do it think that!"

You framed your comment as a 3rd party, not the idiot driving drunk, the above 'argument' doesn't hold water.

Yeah, obviously. It was a sarcastic reply to a nonsense argument of “there are no bad things only bad people”

I didn't say that either. Strawmanning isn't very nice. Have a good day!
> This AI stuff is neither good or bad, it is a tool. The people using it are either good or bad.

You quite literally did??

“AI” is inert. It responds to stimuli, no? The intentions of the stimulator drive the response, no? Is that not accurate?
So that is the argument you’re making?

Everything is driven by a stimulator, dumbass. LLMs have one purpose and it’s plagiarism. Downplaying that by saying “someone’s doing the plagiarism” doesn’t make the plagiarism machine okay. Are you this retarded about guns, too?

It is unfortunate you’ve resorted to name calling and vulgar terminology. I hope you find some happiness.
It must be exhausting moving those goalposts so often
