Artist Jingna Zhang built Cara, a platform explicitly intended to protect artists from having their art stolen by AI...and yet these people just won't leave them well enough alone.
2 things.

Master locks are the easiest to pick and still the most popular. I don't see you advocating for leaving your bike unlocked because it's inevitable that the bike thieves win.

That money is fake and recirculated like the air in an airplane. That's literally what people mean when they talk about the AI bubble. All these companies are incestuous as fuck. Google invests in Nvidia who invests in Anthropic who invests in Microsoft who invest in OpenAI who invest in Nvidia who invest in Google. There's no NEW money coming in. That has ALREADY dried up. They're literally passing money in a circle. That's WHY it's a bubble, and that's how it's already popping.
Personally I think we should watch Oracle. They're by far the most over leveraged. At least publicly. When they fall over, everyone else will follow. The big ones like Microsoft and Google are at least diversified and might survive, but the bubble pop will eventually catch up. OpenAI already spend $1.22 for ever $1 they make, and their expenses grow in lock step with their demand. Sam Altman's plan to make it all profitable is to build AGI and ask it to figure it out for him because, and I cannot stress this enough, he. is. a. moron.
Your defeatist attitude is what they want because the more people that believe that, the longer the bubble is sustained.
Take heart. They are weaker than you realise. They are not infallible, their armor is paper.
I'm drunk and apologize for my flowery language.
Happy Friday, the fight is winnable.
I love you all.
