Even if AIs weren’t inherently harmful, the companies that make them are. And by utilising, publicising, and integrating in your workflow their product you are pumping their value and giving them both more means and more reasons to fuck people over. And because making and selling an AI requires a giant mega corporation, there cannot be a free (as in freedom) alternative.
On top of this, the AI is actually harmful. First of all, they are building their value by stealing other people’s work. They also use psychological tricks to try to give you dependency, that’s why AIs are always overly cheerful, always complimenting questions, and why companies try to humanise the product, they do this to convince you to integrate their AI in your workflow, and once it’s done, your business becomes dependent on them, and that makes them money.
And if that wasn’t enough, everything you tell the AI is both used to improve the AI, and to profile for advertising.
