   Am dreaming of a day when some brave soul in some IT department in some back office somewhere stands up and shouts: "No! I am not going to be a part of this any more! No, I will NOT programme that button to say 'Maybe later' instead of 'No'. No, I will NOT programme this to install generative AI anywhere unless we include a gigantic 'Do You Consent?' button and a 'Remove This' one-click button in a gigantically prominent place."

     How do I hate thee, AI? Let me count the ways.
     I hate thee to the depth and breadth and height
     My soul can reach, when feeling out of my mind as I try and fail to find ways that turn off Copilot and predictive text and stop you changing the right words I typed into wrong words
     And oh, how I hate thee for the ways you waste the planet’s energy and my time.
     I hate thee with the passion put to use
     In my old griefs, and with my grown-up's faith that we should never have moved on from plain text.
