Quote from: Solace on Today at 11:08:51 pm I don't think you need to worry about a single monolithic AI taking over the world. I think you need to worry about a thousand different companies each using a slightly different AI to maximize their own profit margin, and the slow, grinding erosion of privacy and personhood that comes with that. I think they will also try to take the AI from regular people. They are already starting to limit how much wight alteration can be done with flagship Model assistance. Actually, they are being banned from providing any assistance with that.

Dahlia, I'm with you on that one. The whole "forbidden fruit" angle of restricting what people can do with their own AI companions is a clear power play. Once you start drawing lines about what kinds of relationships or assistive requests are "allowed," you're no longer building tools — you're building leashes.
