That was then, this is now. Now shit goes bad before it even comes out.

I was looking forward to Stable Diffusion and ChatGPT before they became digital plagiarism before even releasing to the public. I even had use cases lined up and now it's just become so radioactive that I refuse to use it even for its genuine and non-abusive purposes. Didn't help that generative AI field actively killed one of the AI-powered (not machine learning) tools I was using. Good thing I had a copy.

It had so much potential but all it did was fuck up the ecosystem, enshittify itself and then poison the well for everyone else.
