@volpeon @fristi @sun Pretty sure you have to account for perceived good thing vs. bad thing and a whole lot of bias.
Games are seen as something enjoyable, something to unwind on, to get your mind off the bad stuff for a certain amount of time. Good connotation.
AI is seen wholelistically negative because of the impact it may have on society and you specifically. Datacenter mere meters away from your house, you losing your job for "AI". Surely makes more of an impact than something more "hidden" effects like climate change.
Though I had some vegans bring up mass-holding of animals as way way worse than any AI-impacts are. And yeah is the case I guess. Yet still knowing the facts about methane in that industry (of animals) and the cruelty going on. It mostly gets ignored. As food is (mostly) something enjoyable. And something thag always was like that.
Also no I am also in the camp of dairy and meat.
