yeah this is why I back opensourced AI. I'm resisting using GPT and giving mindshare to the less capable LLaMa's that you can run locally.
people kind of sleepwalk into this centralization of power by becoming *too* dependent on cloud services. the good outcome is where we all keep buying powerful PC's and do as much locally as possible
you could be paying for a big tech service (->disparity) or it could be saving you money (lift all boats)

Just like how we've sleep-walked into surveillance capitalism and climate crisis. Why tackle tough issues when we can be lulled to sleep by shiny toys?
Really appreciate all the perspectives, great discussion.
