This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

That won't happen like that unless the AI is written Open Source. Some asshole will profit exclusively and make "your" computer do whatever they want just like any other closed source software.
well good news, the open source community is only a couple months behind the commercial models, at most. that is honestly completely unprecedented when it comes to FOSS. AI model are just that simple technically. There is no real magic behind it that isn't public knowledge.
Right. Closed Source was never anything precedented. Just secret. And the notion of persuading anyone to run YOUR secret instructions on their computer was always just ludicrous. And yet the masses somehow suckered it up like little girls on Bill Gates cock.
The sheer number of models being openly published gives me some hope. The massive scale LLMs being used by big tech are cool but also prone to being misinformed, requiring very selective data curation... which is the whole problem of Wikipedia and its biased editors all over again.
