GrapheneOS is currently defending its use of AI coding tools on Mastodon against complaints by various accounts claiming to be users.

We do not understand where you're coming from or why you're so incredibly angry with us. It's not justified and does not make sense.

Then why did you say they were leftist?

As for the layoff blame, just because I say I like hamburgers doesn't mean I hate hotdogs. Layoffs can be happening from both those things, and just because people are acknowledging one source doesn't mean they are helping the other source..

    I said "leftist" in quotes. Almost everyone here self-identifies as being on the left, at least insofar as they oppose Trump. And yet... well.

    I am skeptical if AI is already having a substantial effect on employment. In any case, I don't think these people care. You don't see anyone arguing for a better social safety net/unemployment benefits. Here's someone saying that people lose their jobs over AI, but you also have people saying AI is useless. They really don't care.
