>Actually, the current AI situation may be even more perilous than Jurassic Park. In that film, the misguided science that brought dinosaurs back to life was at least confined to a single island and controlled by a single corporation. In our current reality, the dinosaurs are loose, and anyone who wants to can play with one.<p>I'm really tired of reading stuff like this above. Seriously, AI is a disruptive tech and some people will oppose any change, but this is too much. All of the "security issues" mentioned in the article are true for browser extensions,and perhaps even software in general.<p>Then the author talks about "copyright mess" just before describing how it is pretty much resolved in their company (copilot banned).<p>The only real "problem with AI" is really a "problem with cloud" or more precisely "problem with people's lack of understanding of it". Average people should be interested in finding software alternatives that don't undermine their privacy.<p>For example look at AI image up scaling. Every single android app other than mine sends user's images to a server somewhere. Are those images retained? Are they scanned for whatever "legal purposes" the maker deems adequate? No one knows. No one cares. Well specifically in the entire world about 90 people seem to care.<p>Why 90 people? Because that's how many users my android app has 6 months after release. (the app does all processing locally, free version is ad supported, paid version can be used 100% offline).
