Here's an article[0] and a good short story[1] explaining exactly this.

The clippy example already starts out with many assumptions that simply aren't true today.

LLMs are not going to destroy humanity. We need a paradigm shift and a new model for AI for that to happen. ClosedAI is irresponsibly trying to create hype and mystery around their product, which always sells.

Will you please stop calling them ClosedAI? That just comes across like a playground taunt, like "libtard" or "CONservative".

I'll call them what they are. Closed and antithetical to their original goals.
