Not sure what simping is, and I don't believe I have ever referred to LLMs as 'AI'.

It's a tool with a very, very narrow scope of applications. Just because people are abusing it, doesn't mean everyone is.

I run local models, maybe for 5-10 minutes every few days. The idea that this offends you is genuinely funny to me.

Every single thing I publish, I write myself (unless it's examples of the tool working, in which case it's obviously noted as such.)

Your rage is best directed as regulators and corporations training these models - that's where all the power and environmental damage happens.

For individual users, such as myself, the damage is roughly equivalent to leaving a lightbulb on for a few hours, or playing a video game for those same 5-10 minutes.

In that perspective, your attitude is rather jarring, since you act as if I'm somehow responsible for what Google/ MS/ Elon/ OpenAI/ etc are doing.

Almost like you're in a cult, really.
