It does not matter about the limit, if they can convince people to sell out. The kids are still fucked and delayed. Your dismissiveness devalues the harm a tool like this can do. Just how the internet spread rapidly facilatating crime and is only recently being wrangled. Social existence is centralized, intelligence can be too - then it can be sold at a subscription. With you the creator losing all ownership.
It's just the head of the iceberg. Soon the rest will melt too.
I think the future will be somewhere between what we consider normal now and the austere dystopia you envision. This AI shit certainly isn't making the world any better, that's for sure.
Honestly that's not what I envision, that's just an extension of every fear in media and religious philosophy. From the buddhist one is all, that extends the rammifications of every action. To the Christian ideals of god creating 'life'. Fallout 4 and Synths. Cyberpunk and Soul Killer. Full Metal Alchemist and the philosopher's stone/homunculi.
The goal of those in power is to replace the people they need to be in power. This can progress to be much more. We are on the stepping stones of giants and you must assess the ripples. AI is being fed to the masses for a reason, it can facilitate 1984-esque control of information. We are already seeing thought crimes being implicated on people through their immigration processes. Along with thought crimes already being the prime directive behind piracy.
You do not steal, you are theoretically losing them money and that is seen as worth incarceration. Even if it was something you wouldn't purchase or support. They spread the internet before the ramifications became apparent. AI is next if man does not heed.
