Regarding the electricity not going to local customers: it’s not my fault that your country does not have appropriate regulations. None of the data centers are located where I live anyways.
Regarding hiring a human: I 100% would hire a human if there was no AI, you’re right, I’m not trying to hide it. Sucks for them I guess but I don’t see a reason why should I keep using their services if I can get a cheaper and arguably better alternative now - I’m trying to make money, not run a charity supporting development of 3rd world countries with authoritarian regimes.
However, I am pretty sure that the companies which I’m paying are currently operating on a loss with my $3/month and free coding plans. They want to grow the customer base and I’ll just switch once they will start wanting to make a profit, like the Chinese ZAI just did this week, hiking up their prices by over 3x. They are operating on a loss with my <3$/month contribution and not buying another mega yacht yet getting further away from one.
What do you expect me to do? Spend more money when I can get better results with less money? I don’t understand your point, what am I supposed to be doing, according to you?
Why should you Proffitt so much off what used to be other people’s labour, and now plagiarism machine.
why do you expect me to sympathize with you.
I make good money on my own, and I do my best to NOT find the cheapest solution out there for my problems, and look for more ethical ways to spend my money. Because I care about my impact on others over my money. it’s having humanity.

“well it doesn’t effect me directly other than my bottom line, so sucks for everyone else”
