You should be worried because this stuff needs to make sense financially. Otherwise we'll be stuck with it in an enshittification cycle, kind of like Reddit or image hosting websites.

Problem is that by that time there would be open source models (the ones that already exist are getting good) that I can run locally. I honestly don't need _THAT_ much.

Fair enough, if we get there. The problem for this stuff, where do we get the data to get good quality results? I imagine everything decent will be super licensed within 5-10 years, when everyone wakes up.

people like you are the problem. the people who join a website cause it to be shitty, then leave and start the process at a new website. Reddit didnt become shit because of Reddit it became shit because of people going on there commenting as if they themselves are an LLM repeating enshittification over and over and trying to say the big buzzword first so they get to the top denying any real conversation.

I've been on Reddit for more than a decade and I didn't make them create crappy mobile apps, crappy new web apps as well a policy of selling the data to anyone with a pulse.

Do you even know what "enshittification" means? It has nothing to do with the users. It's driven by corporate greed.

Reddit should be a public service managed by a non profit.

Edit: Also LOL at the 6 month old account making that comment against me :-)
