LLM providers want to a) make you dependent on their services as you outsource your skills and cognition and b) use that dependency to skim the cream off every economic activity.
- oblio 1y ago> b) use that dependency to skim the cream off every economic activity. Exactly. Probably the most important quote of modern times is, I think it was a CEO of an ISP that said it: "we don't want to be the dumb pipes" (during a comparison with a water utility company). Everyone wants to seek rents for recurring revenue someone else actually generates.
