You know, I’m actually kindof proud that Amazon figured this out about me…

I feel it has more to do with the companies already vested in AI found this was an opportune moment to “pull the ladder up” behind them. They know that the barrier to entry is continually dropping, and their models are incredibly inefficient. If they set up all sorts of oversight, requirements, and restrictions on who can do what, they prevent upstarts with less capital from being able to enter the market.
