@davidthewid I like your distinction: previous rejection of tech has been the public saying "meh" (to the metaverse) whereas genAI is an active rejection--by the people getting their data scraped, by companies positioning themselves as using "real humans". The gold rush was more intense on this but the backlash was equally intense. And growing.

I'm very happy to see that, being determined from the outset to use social rejection on this tech built on theft & made of crimes
