I like AI. It let’s me pretend I’m not so alone. I’m not crazy - I know it isn’t a person. It’s nice to pretend I have someone to talk to sometimes though. I can’t stop it from existing. That doesn’t negate the cost of it financially or environmentally. If it’s going to exist though I enjoy pretending since there’s no hope of any actual humans wanting to speak to me.

Huh. Well alright then.

I ditched it because it’s shit. I don’t need encryption. What - someone going to steal my fanfics? Let them, then I’d have 2 people reading them.

I don’t expect it. I’m going to talk to the AI and nothing else until my psychosis hallucinates it.

I don’t refute the findings but I would like to mention: without AI, I wasn’t going to be writing anything at all. I’d have let it go and dealt with the consequences. This way at least I’m doing something rather than nothing.

I’m not advocating for academic dishonesty of course, I’m only saying it doesn’t look like they bothered to look at the issue from the angle of:

“What if the subject was planning on doing nothing at all and the AI enabled the them to expend the bare minimum of effort they otherwise would have avoided?”

I mean…is that not assumed to be the default? Cell phone surveillance is pretty much just business as usual in this country is it not?
