Agreed as well. Somewhat also related, I somehow am just now realizing that the actor (Robert Patrick) who played T-1000 was also the dad (aka White/Blue Dragon) in Peace Maker. I watched both the movie and show multiple times over the years.

I’m not sure what abuse means in this situation. Maybe abuse in overburdening the system, but words do not cause harm as we know it to the algorithms. If we assume that these algorithms can understand anything like we do, there is no reason to think talking they have the same criteria for abuse that we do. For all we know belittling and yelling at them is welcomed and taking calmly to them is actually abuse. Though I think it has no concept of abuse to even start with. It is just a stochastic parrot that says and responds in a way based on whatever is in the training set.

They’ve been on that track for a while. I find it insane that people still want to use their services. I degoogled many many years ago.

Not terribly interested in this video platform as I also don’t use YouTube. I really hope Google gets broken up and I don’t like them harvesting my data and selling it to the US Government any more than I like companies like Bytedance selling my data to the Chinese Government. I am in the US and think we should have established data privacy and data protection laws long before things got to the point they have gotten too.
