All of this is so fucking bizarre I can't even wrap my head around it anymore. It's a bot. How the fuck is it suddenly killing people? How is talking to a bot a crime now? Did everyone lose their minds?

Of course it is. The shit people feed into it is quite stupid, as if they think its not being sucked up and used for their advertising algorithm instantaneously to enrich tech bros. Stop using it.
I mean, Google harvests data from search engine queries. I doubt that LLM queries honestly leak all that much more information.
The issue is broader, just that people have gotten really comfortable for paying for service by selling access to their data, and I don't think that that's necessarily a great idea.
