the water argument against AI use is beginning to feel more and more like the energy/recycling/”old” water consumption argument
someone telling you not to use AI because of the water consumption becomes a you vs them problem instead of placing the blame where it really lies: Anthropic, OpenAI, etc

People don't want masked thugs terrorizing their neighbors.
They don't want warehouses being turned into detention centers.
They don't want billions of taxpayer dollars spent on a rogue police state.
They want healthcare. They want affordable homes. They want their basic needs met.

Now is a good time to remember that Meta has announced that it is laying off 10% of its workforce, including 2,000 people just today, while going in on a "AI will replace workers" strategy.

They stole the internet’s knowledge and all the work that went into it and they want to sell it back to us for a fee. What a business model.

The tech bros gave us crypto currency that isn’t currency, artificial intelligence that isn’t intelligence, and prediction markets that are inside-trader scams.
On the other hand, they have given us gigantic data centers that employ no one and destroy communities. So there’s that.

No matter who you are, if you are running a platform or a making a product that collects user data, you need to have a plan for what happens when the government shows up and asks for it, you need to share that policy with that users, and publish a transparency report.
New, by me at this.weekinsecurity.com: Health wearable giant Oura says it has received government demands for users' information (because Oura does not use end-to-end encryption).
Will Oura say how often it gets demands for user data, and how often Oura hands over users' data to authorities?
Will Oura say how often it gets demands for user data, and how often Oura hands over users' data to authorities?
Oura says it gets government demands for user data. Will it share how many?
Oura users' data is not end-to-end encrypted and can be handed to the government. Will the wearable tech maker say how often it turns over data?
