I want to answer because I have not done anything wrong here. Reading these comments, you would think I created this whole AI wave and I am personally responsible for it because I shipped a project. As if there are the traitors / the bad ones on one side, and the purists who still craft by hand the old way on the other.
I said it in a previous comment: we are not here to debate LLM use. This is starting to feel like a witch hunt. Some people seemed to be waiting for the first project to land so they could come and check whether any line of code was written by a human and not by an LLM. Because LLMs are less ethical than humans, of course. :)
On security and privacy: I already answered that in a previous comment. The normal behavior is to check what you install before you do it. Most of the arguments thrown at me here are without foundation, and some are clearly bad-faith.
To Croquette: the three concerns you name (energy use, jobs, training data) are real, and I am not going to insult you by pretending otherwise.
About the vibe-coded apps worry: as a developer, I agree, those apps are going to flood the planet. But there again, that is much bigger than one person, and I do not like generalizations. Are all those apps going to be bad? I do not think so.
About unemployment: mass unemployment driven by AI has already started, and it will probably keep going. I do not have a crystal ball, but in the short term I see real misery for many families. That is not a direct consequence of LLMs or of human inventions in general. It is something older and more primitive: human greed and the race for personal gain. When you promise a manager he can double or triple his salary by using AI to automate the tasks his subordinates used to do, he is not going to hesitate. Except in the rare cases where innate, intrinsic values are dominant, and I have not crossed many of those people.
About energy and preserving the planet: huge topic too. We were already in deep shit before AI and nobody moved. Greed again, and sometimes plain stupidity.
I am not brave enough to carry on my own shoulders the fight against the consequences of a world that has always run after "I need more". I admit it.
About the platform being more ethics-sensitive than most: you are right, and that is exactly why I am taking the time to answer in detail instead of brushing the question off.
If we are talking ethics seriously, the browser you used to type these lines, the terminal, the text editor, the compiler, the PC, the phone, all of those raise much bigger ethical questions than an AWS services emulator that the audience here has not even tested. (Yes, that one is a bit of a troll.)
For my part, I do not hide behind a pseudonym, and I would not spend my time leaving very negative comments on someone else's project just for fun. Which is the impression a few of these comments give.
Do not assume you are the ones who hold the ethics and that everyone else is on the wrong side. History has shown us that it is much more nuanced than that, and that binary thinking is often a sign of much more dangerous ideas.
