I've been using my Framework 13 (Ryzen 7040 edition) for around 6 months now, and I have some thoughts.
This post is mainly to organize them all in one place - I may or may not randomly update this when I have New Thoughts, we'll see.

I like the laptop, it works for me, but I understand that it's by no means a perfect laptop for everyone.
The value isn't great, and it's definitely not as *polished* a product as, say, a macbook.
Despite that, I really like Framework's mission, and I don't regret buying it. It's been great for me overall.

+{% warning() %}
+This is a bit of an unhinged rant, feel free to completely ignore it.
+If you're not in the mood to read somebody's upset rant about AI taking over, just do yourself a favor and skip this.
+{% end %}
+
+{% note() %}
+It should be obvious, but when talking about to AI, I'm referring to generative AI, and *primarily* ChatGPT.
+{% end %}
+
+
+Earlier today, one of my professors gave our class an assignment along the lines of
+> Co-create a 1000-1500 word creative piece with ChatGPT by next class.
+
+Creative writing.
+Generative AI.
+What????
+
+Something about that just didn't make sense to me. It didn't compute.
+Is that really what we're doing now?
+It's graded *specifically* on the use of AI.
+
+Oh, and the grading rubric? Yeah, that's AI generated too.
+
+And I guess that was sort of a wake-up call for me.
+
+Why is a thousand words of AI slop considered more valuable than a couple hundred of actual, genuine, human-generated words?
+There's no chance the professor will actually *read* the forty-odd submissions for this assignment, chances are they'll be summarized by AI and spat right back to us, just like the last assignment was.
+
+And everyone else was just... okay with this?
+Nobody else in the class seemed to care, at all.
+And that *genuinely terrifies me*.
+
+`--- BEGIN ANGRY RANT ---`
+
+---
+
+If we're going to make generative AI so central to everything, it **cannot** be ChatGPT.
+We can not be building our education, our society, around OpenAI's inscrutable magic word box, that almost none of us actually understand.
+
+This is pointless.
+Actually, no, this is worse than pointless, it's actively harmful.
+
+It's like those AI email generation tools that send emails to people who don't read them, and instead just summarize them with a different AI tool.
+It's just a shitty form of lossy anti-compression. It's introducing a middleman that does not need to be there.
+***It doesn't need to be this way.*** This doesn't help *anyone*.
+
+{% note() %}
+Arguably, it helps the companies behind the AI-as-a-service stuff.
+Have you read any of their privacy policies lately? They're farming you for both training data and profit.
+And *nobody* cares.
+{% end %}
+
+Am I just backwards and stuck in the past? Maybe. I know some people would say so.
+Most people seem to be able to embrace it.
+
+Maybe it's just necessary practice.
+Maybe AI crammed into every aspect of life is the inevitable future we're heading toward, and I need to get used to it, adapt, embrace it.
+But AAAAAAAAAAAAAA I *REALLY* DON'T WANT TO.
+
+We're supposed to pretend that this is *good*? This is *human progress*?
+- AI is being shoved into *everything*, where it doesn't even provide any actual benefit
+- It's trained on questionably-obtained source material (copyright, anyone?)
+- The computing resource consumption is astronomical
+- It (well, ChatGPT at least) is controlled by giant companies
+
+We've jumped headfirst into this AI mess without stopping to consider the consequences.
+
+Generative AI has valid uses, but obfuscating human-to-human communication should not be one of them.
+Creating slop that nobody wants to read or look at should not be one of them.
+
+{% note() %}
+I want to be very clear that I don't hate the *technology*. The technology itself is super cool.
+I think AI generated images and video is an amazing feat of computing. Quick summarization of text is genuinely super useful.
+Easy brainstorming of project or gift ideas? Epic! Code line completion that doesn't suck? Yeah, I want that.
+
+But at least to me, there is a very clear line between using the technology *for a valid purpose*, and just generating slop that nobody actually wants.
+It's not the tools themselves that bother me, but rather the overuse and abuse of them.
+{% end %}
+
+I know a lot of people, who when getting stuck on a homework problem go *straight* to ChatGPT.
+Not to a friend, not the textbook, not a TA or professor, ChatGPT.
+What kind of precedent is that setting for where people get their information?
+ChatGPT is *not* a search engine, despite what a concerning number of people seem to think.
+
+A week or so ago, my dad sent me an article comparing and contrasting different programming languages.
+It was obviously AI generated. I don't think he *cared*.
+
+Generative AI is integral to too much at this point. We **can't** go back. It's too late for that.
+Legislature can not and will not fix this. I don't think most people *want* to fix this.
+I have no idea what it will look like five or ten years into the future, but I doubt it'll be better.
+
+When I was in high school, I watched AI take over writing essays in English classes.
+And now in college, I'm watching AI take over the teaching side too.
+It's taken over online search results, it's taken over communication apps.
+We are wayyy beyond going back to how it was before.
+
+Something's being lost here, though I can't quantify it.
+
+I don't want to keep having to second-guess whether something was written by a machine, and not a human.
+Because yes, for some stupid reason, that still matters to me.
+I'd rather read an actual person's broken, disorganized, messy pile of words than some perfect Idealized Text™ from a machine.
+
+I'll be the first to admit that my writing is not the best.
+I actively struggle to produce words that are at all close to coherent. (heck, I mean, just look at this post)
+At least when I'm done, it's words that *I've* written.
+*Me.*
+Not some mysterious algorithm trained on stolen data and shoved down my throat when I don't want it.
+
+I don't *want* to get used to this.
+I don't *want* this to be the new normal.
+I DON'T *WANT* AI IN MY CHAT APP, I WANT TO TALK TO *PEOPLE*.
+
+I really, *really* hope I'm not alone in feeling this way.
+
+{% note() %}
+Oh also, go watch [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-opBifFfsMY).
+{% end %}
+
+---
+`--- END ANGRY RANT ---`
+
+This will (hopefully) be the only time I write anything like this.
+I don't like being upset, I just wanted to get this off my chest.
+I plan to go right back to sticking my head in the sand and pretending the constant bombardment of everything with AI isn't a problem, and try my best to just ignore it.
+
+I really don't know what else I can do at this point.
+
+Hopefully my next blog post will be about gamedev or something I actually *want* to write/think about.
+
+Oh, also, the funny part? This is now just as long as that assignment would have been, had I written it by hand.

To be honest, I don't even *like* RGB lighting most of the time. I find it kind of distracting,
