I am in no way an AI fan. For example the environmental inpact could be as big as planes or cars. Sure, using planes is nice and convenient, but is this worth destroying our planet? Sinilarly, the disruption and undercutting of human creative work.

But I have seen it myself, you can feed these things some Windows software and a device for a bit of testing, and it spits out the reverse engineered device protocol, and a prototype Python 'driver'.

It will be hard for them to stop it if peoples can get open source models to do it locally. They already couldn't stop piracy before AI.

That's why open models you can run locally are so important. Rental LLMs will absolutely get locked down sooner or later. In fact, that's already happening with American ones where they'll refuse to do certain tasks.

I think they will because AI companies carry far more weight than all other software companies combined. And money talks in trump's America. The cat is out of the bag anyway. Adobe deserves to have all its IP stolen anyway.
