Oh hey Undark is here! If you haven’t heard of them, they’re a non-profit science publication and they’re doing some really fantastic journalism. Highly recommend following and reading them.
(1/5) Science has always pushed boundaries, but the stakes are higher than ever in an age of risky science.
Our new series dives into AI, genetic engineering, and other high-risk innovations.

I think there are two key lessons from Linguistics as we deal with LLMs/chatbots being imposed on us everywhere. Grateful for Undark Magazine giving space for me to lay these out:

I am extraordinarily disappointed in Undark here. This is not a good thing coming from them.
AI sits in billions of phones. Refusing to engage won't stop it, just leaves vulnerable people without knowledge. Demand ownership and control, not abstinence.
Abstinence From AI Is Not the Answer
Opinion | Refusing to use AI won’t protect society. Responsible resistance must include gaining knowledge about it.

Well, I guess ill be abstaining from undark magazine along with my persistent abstinence from using AI.
The one thing I will not relent on, is telling other people why they should also.
