true only if there's no form of lock-in. OpenAI is partnered with people who have decades of tech + business experience now: if they're not actively increasing that lock-in as we speak then frankly, they suck at their jobs (and i don't think they suck at their jobs).
- TeMPOraL 3y agoThat's my point - right now there is no lock-in for an individual. You'd have to try really, really hard to become dependent on ChatGPT. So right now is the time to use it.
- colinsane 3y agodependencies have a way of sneaking up on a person. if there was a clear demarcation at which you'd say "they're locking us in: i'm leaving now while i still can!", then that's not the route by which you'll be locked in. yet, even those of us who keep an eye out for these things, we all probably observe ourselves to be locked into one or more things in our life right now: how did each of those happen?
