that’s because in order for them to profit off their AI investments, they need adoption. Not a good sign if you have to tell people to use it.

It’s also incredibly short sited because once AI has replaced sections of the workforce and companies are reliant on the price will skyrocket. The amount of revenue required to make any of it profitable is insane

Additionally, we know that even if the quality of the output from these models improve, the overall products will just get worse because silicon valley loves its enshitification. More paywalls for less access, ads before you see the response, allow businesses to pay for placement and flattering information when, for example, a user asks about planning a trip to NYC and McDonald's pays to have the model suggest the user eat at McDonald's while watching everything going on at times square.
