Please, try at least some modicum of intellectual discourse. Electricity is quite a physical phenomenon of nature, like rain, we can not impart moral judgment on them.
All that said, there are ways to use electricity without “exploitative resource extraction”, for example with a potato.
You need to divorce your thinking of AI as a current prominent manifestation of the capitalistic black hole and the technology itself. Before that is was Crypto. Before that it was cloud, before that it was property derivatives. Capitalism will just hijack anything where they can extract value from the quickest.
AI as a technology is very much real and very much physical, it follows the same physical rules that everything else is. Denying that is like saying steam power is not real because you can’t see the force pushing.
AI has been around for 50 years now. Its driven much of engineering progress in the 70s and 80s, our chemical and biological research in the 90s and physics in the 2000s.
The current large language learning models are just a next progression of this technological trend.
I already did, but you refuse to read it. I explicitly said this is about how A (or what people call “AI”, because it certainly has not existed for “around for 50 years now”) exist in this world how we have created it. Via theft, exploitation and destruction, and oriented to the fulfillment of the elites and the oppression of the worker class.
Absolutism is toxic, yes. Moderated realism upon a flagrant observation of reality as conducted, is not.
Would you say the same of electricity? There is no way to use it responsibly because its all based on exploitative resource extraction?

Remember absolutism is toxic.

I really don’t care.
This is so divorced from the current discussion of what AI is doing now that it’s a waste of time even talking about it.
