    Do you want the cool shit from Star Trek’s imaginary future or not?

    You lost me there. Conflating a fictional future utopia with the product your trying to sell is cheap trick.

    Anyone who uses this bad faith tactic loses all credibility. Post read and disregarded.

      Sell? Only “big AI” is selling it. Generative AI has infinite uses beyond ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.

      Most genrative AI research/improvement is academic in nature and it’s being developed by a bunch of poor college students trying to earn graduate degrees. The discoveries of those people are being used by big AI to improve their services.

      You seem to be making some argument from the standpoint that “AI” == “big AI” but this is not the case. Research and improvements will continue regardless of whether or not ChatGPT, Claude, etc continue to exist. Especially image AI where free, open source models are superior to the commercial products.
