@donnodubus for sure, and the reference source materials are more authoritative. However, consider the utility of an LLM that's "right" most of the time. If it can tell me - more quickly and mostly accurately - how to roast hazelnuts, the average internet user will prefer that experience to Googling/DDGing/etc which today is a toxic experience due to webspam etc.
It's utility over ethics; maybe Napster all over again? And we know what "won" for years until iTunes and Spotify won. For a while.
@andrewgretton well the webspam problem is driven by AI, so that's a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Convenient that these new capital ventures are being sold as the solution to the problem they made...
