Recently quit Claude, feeling authentically human
Been using AI on and off the last year mainly for creative projects and treating it as therapy (dumb, I know). But hear me out, I was genuinely trying to use it for good like ethics projects for myself and was supplementing the mental health info I was getting with real human therapy. After considering the many drawbacks of AI, I have made a vow to preserve my humanity to the best of my ability and help others do the same.
Here was my response when they asked why I was unsubscribing from Claude Pro:
“AI will be the demise of humanity. It is already degrading our institutions, our critical thinking, our society. It is also destroying our environment and set to widen inequality to unforeseen levels. I no longer wish to support this extremely unethical “mission” that you or any other AI sloppers are aiming to achieve. Claude said it itself to me that AI will destroy humanity slowly but surely.”
