I think your characterization is incorrect. He says taking a purity culture pledge or whatever means you're fucked. (ie. that every piece of good tech has links to horrible historical facts and so you cut yourself out of everything from LED flashlights to woven fabric).

@fasterandworse He's right about that. His post doesn't support the current AI bubble and social attack at all... He's on the record as being very much against that. He says he found a way to use AI as a local model he controls that works for him for specific tasks that he's tested and found to be effective, and he doesn't refuse to use it on some principal of purity, which if applied to many other technologies would result in him living in a cave eating uncooked tubers.
