There is no AI. Language models and machine learning have been around for a looong long time.

It's not "intelligent", it is just machine learning as usual, you train the program to reproduce desired results. That's all.

The more you train the program, the more accurate results, it's that simple.

Every "dangerous" application you see popping up nowadays? Was already being done behind doors for decades. They only received publicity because hype.

The "danger" (according to the people on the top of the pyramid) is decentralization. The average Joe becoming capable of having his own hardware, his own model, his own applications, etc. They fear us, not the Artificial Non-intelligence.
