| | Let’s face it, AI is forbidden to be praised or used in pretty much any online community outside of AI-focused sites without mass anger and vitriol in said communities. the same old strawman takes and insults show up pretty much every time someone posts an ai-generated image/video on other subreddits. They always say that AI is killing the environment and wasting water, driving up ram prices. which is somewhat the case with closed-source models via datacenters, understandably an issue. and that corporations, fascist governments and billionares use it for all the wrong, horrible reasons. however, AI used locally on a PC has none of these issues. It also takes much more skill and effort to learn and use. I feel if people are hating on AI so much, they should hate on closed-source. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google etc. They are the ones that pollute the planet with datacenters, They are the ones dipping the economy and supporting bad use. Interestingly, open-source local AI only uses as much energy as high-end PC gaming, probably less. models are being trained by us in the community, like Chroma and Anima. 90% of high-effort AI content is local too. submitted by /u/Neggy5 |
