Reading about this today has totally pissed me off. It turns out I don't hate AI enough.

There was a redditor who used 'AI' to reverse engineer Beads firmware, and when he finished, then he asked Emilie for "permission" to release it. She open sourced it hours later.

I'm heartbroken because I was really hoping she'd release Beads someday, but... the fact that she did and not on her own terms perpetually taints it. Open-source Beads will never feel like Clouds to me. In fact, ever since the Arturia thing it all felt pyrrhic and sad.

Like I'm obvs very, almost radically in favor of open source. And same for RE, especially in RTR situations. But this is just such a dick move, just an absolute fucking antisocial, rude ass thing to do.
