The problem of AI eating and regurgitating its own slop is only going to get worse with time. The best datasets are behind us. Future models are going to have to depend on a lot of human intervention.

If you think it's expensive now, imagine what they'll do if they get their way and people become dependent on it. Once they've got businesses and consumers over a barrel the gloves will come off and they'll skip the lube

Diamonds are also product of nature, but when we grow them in a lab they aren't often considered to be "naturally formed". It's just that the lab we used in this instance was part of the Jornada del Muerto.
