I personally find weird the read on web mechanism.

ChatGPT is worse. The others not so much.

In a culture where people just want to make the cut, chatbots are really perfect.

I think owning a platform like GitHub and acting like you can profit out of your code (not your product) isn't good news.

Mas o silício é bem mais abundante que o bismuto, não?

This would fit "A Boring Dystopia" well. I think protecting data isn't the way to go. The effects of it can already be seen:

All the burocracy for common people, no burocracy at all for Big Tech. No IP, no robots.txt. They are trusted and can do whatever they like, starting on your phone. It honestly looks like another form of aristocracy.

I think many people wouldn't like to live under a "Nerd Reich", so it's only natural that there is a mainstream article against that. I'm assuming people who don't understand anything about the technology that keeps their attention most of the time are concerned about the possibility. Society losing grip over itself, that is, language (social skills) not being the primary characteristic of the successful anymore. That is a blow conventional people won't take easily.

Awesome discussion.

People not accepting that other people got a easier time doing certain things than others is certainly a problem, but too much blaming isn't good as well.

It doesn't matter if they're nerds or not. What matters is where society is swaying to.

I've just finished reading "A Hacker Manifesto" by McKenzie Wark. I recommend that as well.

What wouldn't I be able to access without compatibility investments? Spotify, LinkedIn? I think I'm fine.

Besides, what's the point of OSS that is owned 85% by a big company?
