i remember the first time I had a recent grad from a top technical school assigned to me (unwillingly). shall we compare working with the intern to working with these tools? Its about the same as the first 2 weeks we worked with each other. Thats hella impressive for a tool... But not 3 weeks after... The human intern improved exponentially. The tool does not. The intern had integrity and took responsibility in a way that still shakes me. How could an over-glorified graphing calculator do that. On the other-hand the tool is not organic or sentient. worthy and deserving of exploitation. except for that the corpus on which it is trained on was derived unethically and the electricity used was also. hell, maybe the chips also.
it makes the sound of slop, but the similarity effectively ends there. you cant build an approvable heavy load bearing beam from slop but you can build a burial mound from both.
we need to stop pretending that this sustainable-washing shit is sustainable. this does not solve "the bicycle". its just another bicycle. not even a better one- its worse. why? plastic is the new asbestos. it drips microplastic everywhere. we dont recycle asbestos into bicycles for a reason. contain or plastic brain
