Seriously, when are these bourgeoisie fucks gonna realize that any system designed to coerce or manipulate is inherently corrupting its own ability to be trustworthy, ethical or qualitative.

moreover, i think it’s just weird that everyone expects generative ai to be as open and useful and free as it has been. it’s all to get us to trust and use it unknowingly, then they’re gonna start jacking the prices up. we’ve seen it before with cable television, internet, consumer goods like shoes and computer parts, and more. open source efforts have gone a long way, but it’s still all a tinkerers’ hobby, not a viable alternative.
