There's a lot of reasons why emailing passwords is not the best practice... But AI bots stealing your password to give people free demos is a wild paranoid fever dream.
EDIT: Apparently, I replied to a joke.
It is meant to be as a joke, of course the AI is not that dumb enough to give it away as free demo. Why am I being downvoted? Why don't people understand jokes these days? Do I always have to include /s when making a sarcastic joke even though it is so obvious?
I've seen people argue stupider things earnestly.
