TIL there’s an entire corner of the internet that is boycotting products because the company is using AI — Duolingo, in this case

“Delete your data so they can’t use it to train AI”

So… who’s gonna tell them

luddites are just people opposed to new technology or ways of working - no need for a coherent philosophy (but tbf, they probably think their hatred of tech *is* a coherent philosophy)

regardless of label/definition, i agree these people are beyond stupid

luddites would imply they have a coherent philosophy driving their actions 

i think they’re just stupid
