As the author of "Digital Vegan" [1] and "Ethics For Hackers" there's
much about this thread that pleases me. Some very intelligent
discussion is emerging.
I feel both that the time has come for fundamental cultural change
within the tech/hacker community, and that expressions like "AI
Veganism" are indeed appropriate and useful on many levels.
They enable the discussion of lifestyle choice, rights, health,
ecology and many other salient factors in relation to digital
technology.
At this point, those still clinging to a rejection of modern
tech-critique as in any sense anti-progressive or "Luddite" are in
fact the ones woefully out of date and out of step with how the world
is turning.

- waffletower 4y agoIs there a comment section on http://digitalvegan.net http://digitalvegan.net where we can rightfully downvote its terrible name?
- nonrandomstring 4y agoWhy do you think it's terrible? FWIW, so do I. But much like we say of capitalism and democracy, it's the worst apart from all the others. I have yet to find a better one that captures the attendant issues.
