A while back I asked if anyone had compiled sites/tools who have committed to not jam AI into every corner of their product.

I didn't find any, so I guess that means I'm gonna do it.

What kinds of tools would you like to use AI-free? I'll start: Word processing. I want to be able to write without interference, and create documents without being second guessed.

You?

Boosts welcome; will update this post with a link to a resource page of anything I find.

There's some solid science in this article by @pluralistic, including the observation that "...chlorophyll only makes oxygen in the presence of light, which is notably lacking in your colon"

More importantly, though, he illustrates that the world is complicated and if you just shrug and say it's too complicated or nobody really knows, you're helping the worst of the forces to win. Having a good info environment requires effort to learn and understand complexity.
