Don't be silly. Everyone wants to accomplish their task, not help develop LLMs. At this point it's got nothing I need that a search engine can't handle, so not worth messing with. I'm following along out of curiosity, to see if it ever becomes AI. "Open the pod bay doors Hal!" SciFi reader since the 60's. I'm doubtful.

Although, we have to be careful with our logic and our analogies.

One was reproducing what was written and preserving credit for the author, whereas AI gives credit for what’s produced to a questioner without coming close to acknowledging those who provided the answers or content.

Go back another 4 thousand years, a guy carving pictographs angry about a guy using the alphabet. Although with emojis we’ve come full circle back to pictographs being a global language for techno Babylon clown world.
