3. Humans won't develop talent unless they try. They're less likely

to try if they're busy playing with an AI they think makes them creative or clever.

This is the bait the companies pushing AI hope will not only get consumers to pay for that AI, but also to side with the manufacturers of that AI in their legal battles against the humans whose work was ripped off.

The people at OpenAI knew, for instance, that students would use it to cheat. They didn't give a damn what that would do to education.

They released it for free to get people hooked.

They're not promising to keep it free indefinitely, even the basic version. They're planning higher tiers of subscriptions above the $20/mo ChatGPT Plus costs now.

They want nothing more than millions of consumers who think they need ChatGPT to write.

And the more people use it to write, the more they'll be dependent on it.
