Is Calling Out AI Use Really About the Planet — or Your Ego?

-Welcome back to The Daily Donna — and welcome to Critical Thinking Thursday. In today’s episode, we are taking a step back from therapy-ish topics because another question is at hand: When we call out people for using generative AI, are we really trying to protect the planet — or are we feeding our ego and missing the real problem? I am talking about how social learning theory, dopamine, fear, and systemic power all shape how we talk about AI, convenience, and environmental harm. This isn’t a defense of reckless AI use — it’s a deeper look at who we’re holding accountable and why. In this episode, we explore: -Why calling out individuals feels more satisfying than challenging systems -Convenience vs environmental responsibility -Time poverty and why people use AI --------- 00:00 – Is This About Ego or Change? 00:27 – Why a Therapist Is Talking About AI 01:45 – Manufacturing Excuses & Accountability 03:40 – Critical Thinking Thursday Begins 04:55 – Social Learning Theory Explained 07:35 – Dopamine & Being “Right” Online 09:55 – Individuals vs Systems 12:50 – Time Poverty & Convenience 15:05 – AI as Community & Access Issues 17:05 – Family Systems Analogy 19:35 – Capitalism, Greed & Responsibility 21:50 – Discourse vs Disrespect 23:30 – Final Thoughts ------------ Do you think we’re aiming at the right target when we talk about AI harm? . . . #TheDailyDonna #CriticalThinkingThursday #AIEthics #TechAndSociety #EnvironmentalJustice #SystemicIssues #TherapyTalk #DigitalCulture #DrDonnaOriowo
