Maybe I'm seeing shadows in the clouds, but it seems like AI means a lot more people have been building open source tools.

I'm an AI skeptic, but I'm wondering if this can help undermine some of the shit software industry. Most AI tools sold by companies have an open source alternative.

I'm thinking that maybe AI will accidentally allow the private person to build free tools and reduce the market value of sold tools.

I think banning a topic because you don't like it is not fair for everyone else

It's not just them. A lot of us don't like it. The rules don't exist to appease everyone but to make a "good" community, whatever that means in the eyes of the moderators. So it's a valid suggestion.

It is already used and part in many sections in our life

No it's absolutely not.

I mean would you rather like it being silently used

They can use it and talk about it somewhere else.

I don't understand why you want to ban it for everyone.

Because it's fucking everywhere and it's fucking infuriating and it's fucking dogshit. Corporations are stealing from creators and publishers, driving up costs of electricity, water, and electronic hardware across the board, unleashing DDoS attacks on the entire internet, creating an economic bubble the size of which the world has never seen, and inevitably going to lead to the destruction of the global economy, all in the pursuit of what? Spreading disinformation and sexual abuse? The damage AI is unleashing on the world cannot be overstated...

The absolute least we can do is stop perpetuating it on our little space on the internet.
