The meme presupposes the usefulness of AI, which is why everyone's taking it as a given. If it isn't useful, you don't need to use normative arguments to stop people from using it, people will just naturally never find an opportunity to do so.

Also if you really can't think of any ways to use a chatbot to advance your political goals you need to think harder. It just shows a lack of adaptability.

    If people who didn't know/didn't care about all the ethical issues with ChatGPT didn't find it useful, it wouldn't have 900 million weekly users.

    Obviously they're useful. They still shouldn't be used. Both because they do a bad job that is difficult for their users to see as bad, and because they're 17 different kinds of unethical.

    How many of those 900 million are being forced to use it?

    Alright, fair, probably a lot, but I'd wager much less than half, and in my experience you'll have an extremely hard time finding people who still don't like LLMs when they're not being shoved down their throats outside the Fediverse.
