The Patriot Act and spying on US citizens was a major issue a decade ago.

The prevalence of data and a general sense of powerlessness means this won't get talked about much sadly.

Open AI had first mover advantage.

D'Angelo is mad he weaponized web design against Quora users for years because he would go bankrupt otherwise, and now he is going bankrupt anyway. Adam is at war with god, not OpenAI.
