Because none of the big companies listen to the privacy argument. Or any argument, really.

AI in itself is good, amazing, even.

I have no issue with open-source, ideally GPL- or similarly licensed AI models trained on Internet data.

But involuntarily participating in training closed-source corporate AI's...no, thanks. That shit should go to the hellhole it was born in, and we should do our best to destroy it, not advocate for it.

If you care about the future of AI, OpenAI should long be on your enemy list. They expropriated an open model, they were hypocritical enough to keep "open" in the name, and then they essentially sold themselves to Microsoft. That's not the AI future we should want.
