Also important to note that the public will, eventually, lose access to ChatGPT and other LLM platforms as it exists now. Everyone is just beta testing it for these AI companies. When it actually works, consistently, they'll end all public facing services and it will be strictly B2B. That means the only access you have to generative AI will be through Microsoft, Apple, Google, Facebook, etc. Then they can just block usage violations. Therefore no "Hey chatgpt, write me a program to crack games".
You might have some independent access to LLMs you can run locally, but they will be outdated and not as well trained. The big guys will also use AI to keep those options out of search results and make sure they're removed during security scans of your computer. B2B is simply a way more profitable model for software than selling you a $20 subscription for a chat bot.
I don't think this is entirely accurate. Facebook open sourced llama specifically to counteract this, as slop generation is complementary to their primary good, which is ads. Unlike Google and MS, their only b2b sales channel is ads.
That wedge + China will keep the slop generators open for a while.
what exactly would the business be using the chat bots to do with one another?
