Hi @SilverFlamePack 
I do love these kinds of discussions, especially seeing all the variation between answers! Allow me to stick my nose in too, and full transparency up until a couple of years ago my only experience of AI was The Terminator (any version). I am not a fan. But before we get to that, first let’s deal with this:
Firstly, whoever said that needs a virtual slap with a sledgehammer. It’s mean, and rude, and just… so not cool.
Second, that is the most ignorant thing I’ve heard so far this year. Let’s be clear - AI isn’t damaging the Earth, humans are. AI did not destroy forests, build oil platforms, create the internet or anything else we’re trying to blame it for. We effed up the planet all by ourselves and we know it.
Now, I have always had an intense dislike for AI and probably part of me always will, maybe because it’s now doing all the things the movies said it would, and we all know how those movies ended. Spoiler: we do not fare well. But, after I watched a Netflix documentary called “What’s Next? The Future with Bill Gates”, I started to appreciate its benefits like providing education to children who otherwise wouldn’t be educated. I don’t use AI in my Craft at all, I started using it to make pictures for my website this month (I pray the Light removes John Connor’s ghost awomen) because I can’t draw for shizzle. So I agree with what seems to be the general consensus: it is a tool, and as such, there will be people who use it for good, and people who use it for bad.
With all that said, I would never demean or make someone feel bad for using AI, because why would I care anymore than they would care if I used it? Someone else using it does not affect my life in any way (unless you unleash the Apocalypse in which case I will be haunting your butt for all eternity), so I don’t think I have any right to say whether someone should or should not use it. Just like I have no right to tell someone what to eat, who to love or who to pray to… this century has pushed us so deeply into each other’s lives, we now think we have a right to pass judgement on any and every part of someone’s life.
I think at the present moment, my biggest concern is that we can’t tell the difference between human work and AI work anymore. Humans programmed AI to steal the content of millions to learn from it, so it learned from the best - us. So now it can create content just like we do, and it can do it better. I agree that work created by a human has soul in it, but there are some AI creations I’ve seen which one could argue also have soul, so how do you tell the difference. Also, AI learned the good and the bad, and I’m not a fan of vulnerable people being alone chatting to AI and receiving potentially harmful suggestions.
To come back to you, whether you have a condition or not is irrelevant in my opinion… if you want to use it, then use it. Whether or not you use it won’t change the fact that it’s there, and if it helps you then why not? Yes, data farms use lots of electricity, water and land - just like pretty much everything else on the planet does. Again, AI did not create data farms, humans did; let’sput the blame where it belongs. Factories use electricity, water and land, but I don’t see anyone telling people to stop buying clothes. Even though we’re producing ridiculous amounts we do not need. Rant over, Phoenix out

P.S. I love that cookies analogy too! 
Do what works for you and your practice. 
(yeah, my alliteration knows no bounds)
Such were some of the same individuals using pre- AI to make cartoons do porn or putting one person’s face on a different body to “prove" guilt.
I hold you, or anyone else who needs cognitive assists, harmless from using the tools provided, which include AI.
Hi!
