openai's vision of the future is more or less: - you will not be able to competitively perform cognitive labor without using openai tools - you will still be doing that labor - openai tools, and not you, will be deserving of all credit for the labor that is done
gotta love how constantly openai bares its ambition of creating a world where absolutely every aspect of society is controlled by their company
