What do you personally use AI for? (jemmy.jeena.net)

I really want to use AI like llama, ChatGTP, midjourney etc. for something productive. But over the last year the only thing I found use for it was to propose places to go as a family on our Hokaido Japan journey. There were great proposals for places to go.

But perhaps you guys have some great use cases for AI in your life?

I despise that the artwork generators are all based on theft.

Ownership of anything is difficult to define. The internet has accelerated this loosening of definition. If I pay a subscription to use my coffee pot, do I really own it? If I take a picture of the coffee pot, do I own the picture? If I pay a photographer to take a picture of the pot do I own the picture, do I own their time?

I don't intend on trying changing your opinion on theft, but its interesting to think about how ownership feels very different as time goes by.

If ownership doesn't exist, then piracy doesn't exist. Can't steal that which is not owned. Of course companies don't like that and consider it "not theft" if they're doing the stealing.
