Whenever I tell people that they're paying for their free LLM with their data, they say that they're fine with it.

Whenever I tell people that eventually this free LLMs will infiltrate ads and corporate agendas and will basically brainwash them, they get visibly disturbed, which is a bit funny because I've been saying that about IG reels and algorithm crap and they couldn't care less about that.

Because they don’t believe a nonhuman entity can convince them of anything. But ai approaches human mentality, and converses. It’s visibly and intellectually manifested. Humanized, for better or worse. You basically told them “you’ve been telling some guy all of your secrets, and he’s going to use them against you.”

That’s honestly amazing. Most people I talk to about it are too delusional and overly confident to accept this reality or have surrendered completely, saying that all of their coworkers are already vibe coding and the company would literally dissolve over night if they lose access to LLMs. I feel bad for their customers who have no idea what‘s coming for them should they need support or tighter security.
