With coding it's really the environmental impact, I love this planet and all the creatures on it, so knowing that every time I use it I'm causing huge amounts of waste and pollution is not great. I'm studying computer science more so I use AI less, and hopefully one day I won't even need it.
BUT I don't think less of people who use it for coding, this is just a standard I hold myself to regarding my environmental impact.
