Benefit of AI? (lemmy.world)

Maybe I'm seeing shadows in the clouds, but it seems like AI means a lot more people have been building open source tools.

I'm an AI skeptic, but I'm wondering if this can help undermine some of the shit software industry. Most AI tools sold by companies have an open source alternative.

I'm thinking that maybe AI will accidentally allow the private person to build free tools and reduce the market value of sold tools.

I feel like listing copyright infringement next to actual harms is sort of an "arson, murder, and jaywalking" moment.

But yes, I wouldn't mind banning discussion of this nonsense as well.
