Yeah I'm also with GP saying
>> I don't see it as democratic or democratising. TBH the knowledge is stored in three giga companies
It can appear democratic while access is allowed, but if it can be revoked at any moment for any reason (it is private companies, after all, that own the AI playgrounds), then the illusion will shatter.
What is more, excessive reliance on AI creates skill deficit rather than skill surplus, and promotes dependence on AI. Wizards that are nothing without their magic wands, in a way.
This may not stand out today, but give it half or one decade, when the next generation won't have a pre-AI skillet to fall back to, and the seams will become all too apparent.
