      You can get principled on that but then also walk out if they have a phone.
      You’re not using one are you?
      Do they know where those precious metals come from and how they’re mined? No.

      Most of these people are also blissfully unaware of any AI problems except them possibly taking over the world.
      They don’t even need to understand it, It’s just some cool thingy computers do these days.
      Then back to their administration or the facebook.
      Average shopkeepers are busy running their shop.
      They’re not having ethical debates on Lemmy.

        The ethics is only one side.

        My main concern is the fact that if they use AI for themselves, they will cut every corner known to man when they provide their service to me. I can’t expect an AI slop user to provide me with something of quality, if they can’t even make their slop not look awfully like slop. At least I shouldn’t be able to tell it’s slop.

          I find that a bad argument. They are not designers, it is not their field.
          If anything it might be that they are too busy with getting better at what they do to waste time on trivial stuff.

          It’s like saying this or that famous actor must be shit at his job because he’s out in a track suit and crocs.

            If they sell groceries they arent a distributor either. Or a producer. Or a transport company.

            Point is, they hire someone that gets the job done right for all of us.

            The minimum they can do is hire a beginner artist with no career to design their posters and other stuff. These guys take pennies anyway. Jesus.

            What a pointless talking point.
