@DornerStan Trump directly benefits from the use of ai because he is lobbied by ai billionaires such as Musk, OpenAi, and others:

Like, it's such a thing he fast tracked a bunch of datacenters with no ethics overview:

The IDF uses ai and invests heavily in ai for use in their genocide tooling such as Lavender and "Where's daddy?":

Using AI also helps destroy communities low income, often predominantly Black neighborhoods:

AI is also horrific for the environment and exhausts water supplies.
A badly generated photo of donald trump and netanyahu in prison isn't worth propelling man-made climate change. Pay an artist if you want that done.
Training AI models uses a lot of energy. Using them after the fact uses very little. So the environmental point doesn't apply here.
Your other points are relevant for someone investing money in these specific corporations, I suppose? But that still doesn't explain any link between the OP using a generative model and their materially supporting anything.
At best they're semantically related, in the sense that the word "AI" is used to describe the generative algorithms used in the OP, and "AI" is also used to describe the corporations that support trump and the IDF. But that doesn't show a material link between the OP and these evil entities. So you're going to have to do a lot more work if you want to suggest OP is in any way "supporting" them.
And even if you could show that, it would still only be true if OP used OpenAI rather than any of the dozens of other options, such as DeepSeek.
I am not an AI "bro", I'm a Marxist genuinely trying to understand your material analysis. You claim or imply OP's post is somehow supporting OpenAI, Trump, and the IDF, so you need to back that claim up with evidence or reasoning. Otherwise you're conflating two different things and using criticism of one to attack the other.
Jesus, you got destroyed
I don't even know who you are lmao
