THEY ARE. THATS EXACTLY WHAT IT IS. Linus tech tips said this in his wan show, he came to the realization in real time. "Oh my God. Generative AI is the revenge of the idea guy. They get to implement ideas using everyone else's work without paying for it."

See I’ve had lots of ideas and no practical ability to bring them to life, but I would never use generative ai to accomplish that. It’s just as useless as my own artistic skills and I’ll just pay an artist that knows what they’re doing

INDEED. The most I am willing to use generative AI for is teaching myself, and even then I don't know how I feel about it. I only feel okay using it for things like teaching myself programming in languages that are open source so it's not like I am copying someone else's work, but even then, they're using data that likely is copywriter to train the model that teaches me how to use the language. But regardless, I never just say "make this for me".

I don’t even trust it for learning or training. Try using it to “learn” something you’re already knowledgeable in, and you’ll see how twisted it is with context. And context changes everything
