What do you think about it?

On the one hand, it's hard to deny we've not seen some crazy projects become possible that weren't even a consideration before. Like that Breath of the Wild 3DS port, or those ports of Super Mario 64 to every platform under the sun.

At the same time though, I'm very much not a fan of how it was trained on everyone else's work without permission, the environmental impact of the technology, or how damaging it might be to a sustainable society.

Feels like we're entering a very risky time at the moment, that's for sure...

Imagine living in a society ruled by copyright laws, and letting someone else insert more-or-less edited versions of others' works into your own, no notice or anything.

But that raises a big question. Should copyright laws be a lot more lenient? I feel like part of the issue is that there's a level of hypocrisy here. The way AI is being treated by some courts is how other things should have been treated.

If you mean by other things fangames and romhacks then yes, those never claim to be original material so unless authors make money with it, nobody should bother them like Nintendo does. It's a matter of being honest and transparent with what you do, and those LLMs, the companies behind and the users aren't imo.
