      There are lots of reasons not to use ChatGPT (or any AI) but it’s silly to think the consumer subscribers cancelling their subscriptions will make a dent. The real money is in the enterprise contracts. They only have a paywall to set limits on the overhead.

        We can’t vote with anything but our wallets here, so this is a thing we can do to at least reduce their income. And considering they’re losing close to $100 million every day already, I can’t help but suspect nickel and diming them a bit still hurts.

          It’s the kind of shit that can work long run. It worked against some AAA studios. I remember people saying that would never make a difference, but the sales numbers paint another story.

          It just takes time to gain momentum.

      Meanwhile my centrist governor is proud to be the first state to adopt it. I love living in a fucking deep blue state captured by oligarchs.

    local ai models you run on your own machine are better for your privacy, even if they’re nowhere as intelligent.

    Seems crazy to only be realizing they’re evil now, but I guess it’s something at least.
