@EllingArtist Person A uses AI to make art for their book that they then publish. Person B uses AI to learn how to fix their dishwasher.

Which use of AI was more unethical?

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@nyawtism If two artists were making two different lamps, we'd expect them to look different, but nobody would fault them if the wiring inside was the same. We share code with each other all the time, People have copy/pasted my code before and I've done the same, it's just not a problem.

@mutant_liberal @johnthenoticer It's from 2023, I definitely wouldn't call it old. This has been an observable trend going back over a decade, so what this study really shows is that nothing has changed since the early 20-teens. Still, I'd like to see if anything has changed in the past year or two.

@_bazztek "Proving my point" isn't the catch-all defense you think it is, and spamming it to every reply even when it doesn't apply to the response just makes you look like you have the 12 year old mentality you're trying to critique.

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@skeletrust So my literally exactly how AI should be used. What's the problem again?

@bethbourdon You make the world a worse place

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@bethbourdon @memeticsisyphus It's not that you're doing your job, it's that you're gloating that you got the most unimaginably evil people off easier. This is a heavy thing you have to do for your job, why does it make you happy that you have to make the world a worse place sometimes?

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@RambleMan51 I married a girl at my church, idk what you're doing wrong (other than the not Christian part, maybe)

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@DummyThiccRobot @shinygirl404 What?
1) Stealing is wrong and leads to low-trust societies
2) I agree that accidentally walking out with some goods is generally not the same thing
3) We should still commend people who correct their mistakes, because they make societies better

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@DummyThiccRobot @shinygirl404 Generally I agree, but the post is insulting people for wanting to correct their mistakes, which I find abhorrent. If you realize you're accidentally stealing, go back and do the right thing. We should be lauding people who behave this way, they make society better.

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@DummyThiccRobot @shinygirl404 Of course it is, don't listen to people who try to justify thievery. It's just a coping mechanism so they can justify making the world around them a worse place.

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@Apologetics941 @ThoughtfulSaint How long do we have to wait until I can come back to this thread and gloat that you were wrong? Put a year on it

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@CambodianLimbo @e___uo @sh69147 @shinygirl404 Do you know what cucked means? Or are you just using it to mean something like weak or submissive?

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@e___uo @sh69147 @shinygirl404 Oh sorry, someone said stealing from corporations is morally good, maybe I responded to the wrong person? Anyways, what IS noble is correcting a wrong-doing, whether it was intentional or not. We should be commending this person for doing what's right

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@e___uo @sh69147 @shinygirl404 Stealing doesn't just harm those you steal from, it harms the whole community. It causes low-trust societies, and people see these kinds of justifications and use them to justify their own anti-social behavior.Anything can be framed as noble if you're doing it to fight the system

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@glegleKnowsBest @shinygirl404 It's actually just the reason everything is behind glass now. It lowers trust in society, and we're all worse off for it.

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@StreetGenius99 @sh69147 @shinygirl404 "Don't steal" is an ethical principle, not just a practical one. But if you want to be practical about it, stealing is up there at the top with behaviors that lead to low-trust societies, even if you think you can justify it by claiming a lack of harm done

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@deathbian I live in Maine, where there are veggie stands and disc golf courses no one mans, there's just a box you deposit money into to take the product or use the service. These honor systems exist because I live in a high trust society with people I can depend on. Let's keep it that way

[Dillon @DillonDow79259]

@sh69147 @shinygirl404 Does getting stolen from rock? We avoid unethical behavior because it hurts other people, not because we personally don't like the outcome.
