@dave_cochran @shalf I once taught an older woman how Google works. She had never seen a search engine before and she was in love.

AI like Google once was for us as beginners and first starting... (and not caring / reading Terms)... 

@HannahClover @dave_cochran @shalf That's like all of us coming across some tech or added feature for first time, like we got email without reading checkbox terms and then we get our parents 'on to it'...

And then realise decades later that no, this is not good - but wasn't any better way back then and not much now (I remember when email was 9.99$) so based on that stage of evolution not many would get email ! (and that would be somewhat if people not willing to pay!)

Bundled AI or other things (with or without checkbox at beginning or along the way) is similar integrated stuff which at some point you have to say NO to in a hard / impossible ultimatum of self-denial and decline of of usage of such increasingly popular steroided code / software-turned-trojan-horse software... 💣 💥

This was a good example and a more unique combination of as cropping tool, usually Terms and Conditions trick + actually adding to original images or replacing (potentially sexualise it too which humans do plenty of)

In short:
