I’m not familiar with any of these limitations that you described. Those might be limitations of the specific credentials manager(s) that you’re using. You might want to try a different one.

Meh. Companies will always operate in their own interest. What matters is to constrain their behavior with legislation, like California’s Cap and Invest program.

His spouse reasonably complained that an audiobook wouldn’t be in his voice. But Sng wasn’t to be outdone in the zero-effort-parenting department.

Honestly, if I was the leader of a religion, AI would seem like a great tool. Create an agent with live voice chat that is prompted to give all of the religion’s fundamental ideas. A single religious leader could create the app, and millions could use it. The leader could assert that the app is designed exactly the way that ${deity} told the leader to design it, so that the followers are essentially talking with ${deity}. It would be just like THX 1138.
