@cikame1@Grummz Absolutely.
My point is that slave labour made companies competitive by exploiting the work of others. And as a society we decided that wasn’t ethical so the moral argument won over the economic one.
Ring any bells?
@stinkycubert@S0methingOther True in that we have McDonalds but we also have restaurants.
In terms of it being out of the bottle, I’d disagree. During the slave trade, companies wouldn’t have dreamed of giving up slave labour for risk of being uncompetitive. But we decided as society that it was unethical.
@shingetzunazaru Just because you can produce things with GenAI doesn’t mean it’s not theft and doesn’t mean anyone’s actually going to pay for them.
Who wants to watch two robots shooting a ball into a net for 90 minutes?
@MarkBozon@eurogamer You seem to be conflating lots of different things there.
People hate generative AI built by huge companies pillaging the works of hundreds of millions of people, that’s then used to replace workers, produces low effort slop and damage the environment in the process.
