That is true, and running locally is better in that respect. My point was more that privacy was hardly ever an issue until suddenly now.

It is effing hilarious. First, OpenAI & friends steal creative works to “train” their LLMs. Then they are insanely hyped for what amounts to glorified statistics, get “valued” at insane amounts while burning money faster than a Californian forest fire. Then, a competitor appears that has the same evil energy but slightly better statistics… bam. A trillion of “value” just evaporates as if it never existed.
And then suddenly people are complaining that DeepSuck is “not privacy friendly” and stealing from OpenAI. Hahaha. Fuck this timeline.

That you’ve never heard of it does not mean it doesn’t exist. You - or anyone else - just never heard of it.

Run an adblocker. Seriously, ads are nothing but other websites in the same browser - exactly the kind of thing that is the basis of this problem.

Artificial General Intelligence, the pipedream of a technological intelligence that is not producing a single thing but generally capable, like a human.

Edit: recommended reading is “Life 3.0”. While I think it is overly positive about AI, it gives a good overview of AI industry and innovation, and the ideas behind it. You will have to swallow a massive chunk of Musk-fanboism, although to be fair it predates Musk’s waving the fasces.

I am convinced that everyone really has to make this work one way or another because so goddamn much money was - and still is - being spent on this garbage.
