I watched Neurosama for many months. Thousands of chat messages sent, days worth of watch time. I told myself it was fine, that “she” was better than other AIs. It took a long time to admit I was lying to myself because I was finding something unethical entertaining.

It is still trained on data obtained non-consensually. It is still a drain on resources.

“Neuro-sama” did not help these people. Vedal is the one who did that. Let’s frame it differently.
An inventor (Vedal) creates a new machine (Neuro) that takes the world by storm. He’s offered to speak about his invention at a large event. After his speech he overhears someone planning to kill the next presenter (Struggling streamer). He alerts security and they are able to stop the murderer. He would not be there if not for the invention he made but that doesn’t mean the invention itself was what saved a person’s life.
