Consider what these kind of models will do in healthcare when their goals are to "keep costs down"
Ignore the environmental concerns, the power usage, the ethical concerns, the labor issues, the surveillance nightmare they create, ignore all of it for a moment.
These machines will kill you.
Derailing, disrupting, and stopping by any means the further deployment and development of LLMs is self defense.
yep, and this will be the most difficult boycott for us so far, because we got so comfortable there. time to build something new!

Good Idea: Boycott Spotify

https://www.middleeasteye.net/trending/spotify-faces-boycott-calls-over-ceos-investment-defence-startup

Spotify is dominating the music streaming world, but itโ€™s screwing artists and flattening music into bland, algorithm-friendly mush.
- Spotify pays $0.003โ€“$0.005 per stream, and tracks under 1,000 streams earn nothing. Big names hog the cash, leaving indie artists broke.
- Their CEOโ€™s investing in military AI, and they donated $150k to Trumpโ€™s 2017 inauguration.
- They push generic (AI) โ€œghost artistโ€ tracks to save on royalties.
- Spotifyโ€™s max 320 kbps sounds like a tin can next to other services lossless audio.
- Their Algorithms favor safe, nostalgic hits, making music feel like elevator background noise.

What to Do Instead:
- Join the streaming cooperative https://resonate.coop/
- Transfer playlists with Soundiiz or TuneMyMusic in minutes.
- Buy music on Bandcamp (artists get 80โ€“85%) or grab vinyl from local shops.
- Host listening parties with friends or tune into college radio for real discoveries.
- Support artists directly: join their email lists, share their tracks, or Venmo them $5 for a coffee.

You donโ€™t need Spotify to love music.. Letโ€™s make music human again.
