Hey everyone,
I want to take a moment to sincerely apologize and clarify something important. When I advocated for the use of AI tools on the site, my intent was to explore constructive and helpful features—things like accessibility tools, writing assistance, or streamlined moderation. I saw potential for good, and I genuinely didn't consider that the same technologies could be tied, even indirectly, to harm on a much larger scale.
It was never my goal to support systems that could contribute to violence, especially the kind that harms innocent people—including children—in places like the Middle East. I now understand how deeply entangled some AI companies are in military and surveillance operations, and I deeply regret not doing more research before speaking in favor of these tools.
I realize how my stance may have come across, and I'm sorry for the insensitivity. I appreciate those who took the time to point out the broader consequences. You weren't being dramatic—you were being right. Going forward, I'll be much more thoughtful about what I support and how I talk about it in this space.
Addendum: While I'm owning up to things, I also want to apologize for not hitting even 10 roleplay posts in the last six months. Life got in the way more than I'd planned, and I let my activity slip. I know that consistency helps keep this community alive, and I'll do my best to re-engage meaningfully.
Thanks for reading—and again, I'm sorry for the oversight and the impact it had.
