incompetent half-assing is rarely this morally righteous of an act too, since your one act of barely-competent-enough incompetence is transmuted into endless incompetence by becoming training data/qc feedback

    I genuinely think that’s a noble sentiment and I share that concern. However, this would entail making a deal with the Devil at this point, and pretty much literally.

    Most if not all relevant models nowadays are owned by outwardly unscrupulous people, which means any correct interaction we have with their models only serves to build up the Devil’s throne.

    It is a downright tragedy that people will suffer as a result of said models, but that fault is not on us. Besides the fact that they’re essentially stealing labour and data in order to train their models, they’re also using them to dish out propaganda, to replace workers and throwing them in a ditch, to cause yet another financial bubble which’ll flush the toilet when it inevitably pops - again.

    We need to let them fail, otherwise we are just encouraging others to use us in the same exact ways.
