The AI hate goes a bit far for the average joe on the free plan
So i used chat gpt to look up links to unity assets i can legally buy for my unity vrchat avatar project im making shared 2 of the links in the server asking which asset looks better and which to buy. (So giving money to actual artists not using AI)
Then, someone cropped the link where it says chat gpt and called me out for using ai in general chat publicly and said im on my own there.
So, essentially, im not worth talking to or helping because i used the free version of Chat gpt to look for a link? Im no better than companies that mass use ai and build ai data centers or mine crypto ? I didn't know that sharing a chat gpt domain would paint me as the servers' punching bag, and I'd be painted as the person making artists lose jobs.
I mean, I've been paying people to make skyrim mods for years even though they publish them for free, so this really hurt.
I left after that to think an lgbt focused server about acceptance designed to be a safe space would be so black and white political... i was just there because my friend is, but now, just looking at the server icon makes me salty.
And then i go to reddit to try and vent over this (i guess my mistake), and the first comment i got for posting this somwhere else calls me a baby a lier and that im to lazy to do the hard work myself and just use AI okay thanks just paint me as something again.
How is it even different from googeling something
It’s like saying eating cereal with milk means I endorse everything the dairy industry does, and therefore, i am evil
