Another thing is people focusing on the “AI vs anti-AI” argument and overlooking the “open source vs close corporate AI” war going on.
There’s a very narrow window to solidify “personal” AI before the giants capture the market and snuff everything else out. Its future is either useful tools you run on your phone/PC (or maybe in P2P swarms or among highly competitive API hosts), or it’s what you described: shitty, unethical, corporate UIs that ruin everything.
Lemmy vs Reddit (and simply being ‘anti-Reddit’ obscuring that) is an apt analogy.
It’s why, to be blunt, the broad liberal “anti AI” stance really annoys me. It feels like everyone shooting themselves in the foot.
