"The recent innovations in the AI space, most notably those such as GPT-4, obviously have far-reaching implications for society, ranging from the utopian eliminating of drudgery, to the dystopian damage to the livelihood of artists in a capitalist society, to existential threats to humanity itself."

A rant that's pretty much about how money-grabbing idiots are slapping AI on any old shit. We all know who they are.
