      Hahaha, I don’t know why people are so shocked. I’m sure we will see anything useful with AIs anytime soon, just like with crypto hahaha.

      In the mean time, it’s obvious these companies are using AIs as an excuse to bypass laws and regulations, and people are cheering them …They are bypassing copyright laws (in a direct attack to open source) with their autocomplete bots, but we should not worry, it’s not copyright infrigment because the LLMs are smart (right), so that makes it ok … They are using this to steal the work of real artists through image generation bots, but people love this for some reason. And they are using this to bypass the few privacy laws in place now, like Facebook/Meta could ever have another incentive.

      Maybe I’m extremist, but if the only useful thing we are getting from this is mediocre code autocomplete that works sometimes, I think the price we are paying is way too high. Too bad I’m in the minority here.
