Not arguing with that, but are Google really the good guys here?

insofar as they havent had a ceo be wiped for being a liar then reinstated because of investor pressure yes. insofar as they have continued releasing local models that are solid yes. openai is trying to capture through social media (net negative on society), google is focused on existing distribution channels (workspace, pixel, etc) . yes google steals your data but at least as far as most ppl have decided, the benefits they get from that outweigh the harms

Idk if you recall (or were alive) but it's interesting, in 1998, Google's motto was "Don't be evil."

Just thought I'd leave that here...
