OpenAI and other AI companies have known about these use cases. The fact that they claimed to put "safeguards" in place is disingenuous. They know it's not possible to fully control the output of these things. This has always been nothing more than a fig leaf. That's what makes it deception imo.

It's wild when you gotta introduce people to basic shit that they've never actually had to consider.

I hear you. I'm interested to hear more of your full thoughts. I will say that public funding and philanthropy only produce certain kinds of art.
