This really disgusts me, and it confounds me. What is he thinking?
Certainly a smart, well-informed writer like Thom Hartmann knows all the problems caused by so-called artificial intelligence. Asking AI to create artwork is a *huge* waste of valuable resources — water and energy — not to mention probable infringement on the rights of original image creators. Plus it feeds right into the hands of thieving capitalist mega-corporations, the kind that a liberal like Hartmann presumably opposes.
Using AI in this way is indefensible. It’s wrong, and it must be condemned.
I’ve stopped following Hartmann (@ThomHartmann) and I hope you will too.

Not unfollowing Thom Hartmann, too much is riding on 1) keeping a unified left together, and 2) finding the right balance for human utilization of LLMs. Our polity has problems energizing solutions once corners are seen around, I get it. But Hartmann’s production values in question are very small beans. Plus, we already have a surplus of left-purity tests.
