Thanks for the detective work! On the one hand, I don’t have a problem with someone mentioning a helpful resource they developed in a relevant thread, even if it’s paid. But it would be more honest to disclose that’s what’s being offered rather than disguising it as an offer of a free resource.

Oh, I think I just fell for it. I was asking them if they could share their knowledge...

Yeah you have to be careful with this AI landscape. It is fraught with a lot of the same issues as the crypto landscape, with many of the same players.

I wonder whether generative AI will be thrown out with the bathwater once this issue hits critical mass the same way cryptocurrencies were. Both technologies provide real solutions to real problems faced by small sets of honest users, but they can also be abused by bad actors to assist and amplify their actions in pretty much the same way.
