  • You could, but your original take was to not engage at all.

    And I dont know if youve tried to engage with an AI user before but the whole point is that they dont want to learn to do the thing they got AI to do, trying to educate them about anything is likely to result in glazed over eyes and deaf ears.

    If youre very lucky, they might ask AI about its environmental impact, to which it will probably lie and justify its existence, thereby burning a lump of coal in the process and we come full circle to what we are trying to avoid.





  • Not calling it out is akin to not calling out anything else unethical.

    See a parent hitting their child? Shut up and move along.

    AI data center being built in your neighbourhood? SHUT UP, JUST DONT USE IT.

    Someone littering on your street? Stop whinging, just ignore it and it will eventually blow in to the ocean - all good!

    If no one speaks up, then it just gets worse. Protest is fundamental to pushing back against the horse shit that corpos try and push down our throats every day. Someone less informed may take the lack of negative comments towards AI slop as it being OK and normal when it clearly isnt, therefore adding to the problem.

    Hard disagree with your opinion and I think it comes across as corpo cuckery so you get an upvote I guess.








  • I use Symfonium to do the same thing.

    My rating system is a bit loosey goosey because its hard and tedious to catagorise music into more that 5 levels. Its mostly defined by how much/often I would listen to a song because that seems like a good base line.

    Songs sonetimes get upgraded / downgraded on the fly and then siphon in / out to the respective playlists.

    • 5 star: high energy, 99% wont skip, will listen to hundreds of times again
    • 4 star: any energy just a good song, will listen to many times again
    • 3 star: indifferent, might be a hit on the right day in the right mood, wouldnt listen to more than once a week
    • 2 star: not for me, can understand why others might like it, wont make it in to any of my playlists
    • 1 star: absolutely fucking not, mark for deletion (hyper commercial pop like the overplayed shit through the 2010s mostly fills this category)
