The "generative" AI debate.
Most of the criticisms are misleading and hyperbolic (if not straight up counter-productive), and it has zero real use cases other than making the internet useless by filling it with thousands of scam websites. I guess it could also be used to give you a TLDR of things. Either way though nothing we do or say is going to change things since the technology is already out there.
As I understand it the TPM is for people who have physical access. It prevents them from cloning your disk.
I think with an adequately long password (or an adequately resource-intensive encryption algorithm) you can secure your disk enough to prevent unauthorized access. But the TPM would prevent them from removing your hard-drive and shunting it into a super-computer (so all password attempts wouldn't need to be on the crummy 10-year old laptop CPU) so a TPM + password is more secure.
