AI is about increasing profits. Consumer choice is not a thing when 99% of companies follow the same profit driven incentives. Reactions like this, while good, are not going to change anything. You cant make change through consumption. You must make change through labor and labor organization.

This sub is just filled with "consumption" based solutions to the point that I feel it is almost negative in trying to fight the actual problems with AI and art.

I want to see more pro union and pro labor posts here. This "change through consumption" crap is really getting old.

You can do both. Make informed decisions about how you spend your money, and foster unions.

Yes. But what is this sub primarily filled with?
