    Well, if you compare against one of the known worst offenders you will always look better.

    But also, the cattle farms at least produce food. For humans to eat. Like, we need food. We don’t need waifu chatbots.

    This is the same argument as “a human baby takes years of nurture and training until it can do task too.” Like, yeah, but that’s a human. The reason we do all this shit.

      In all fairness, while humans need food to survive, we don’t need beef and there are objectively better options for sustainability than animal agriculture.

      Not saying AI isn’t abhorrent, but the argument that beef makes food so its water consumption is not appalling isn’t strong.
