@Luanti Hey 👋 I'm a long time supporter of the project. I'm with F-Droid and in that context, we're putting together a funding proposal and we'd like to include Luanti, if there are contributors who are interested. Please get in touch! My matrix account is best, otherwise email or here on Mastodon.
A concrete example of how #AI saves #money for #PayPal: I have an old account with 150€. I want to get the money out but its locked. AI says I need to do more verification to prove I'm me. There are five pieces of info I had to provide. After months, four were marked verified. The fifth fails every time I try. Only #ChatBot support is available, which just points to me to docs. So they'll just keep my money knowing I won't sue over so little money. AI makes locking accounts like mine cheap.

Not only OpenAI donated $25m to Trump becoming their top sponsor, they also power the tools ICE uses to target people, and now they have a deal with the Pentagon.
But with them burning through money, boycotting them is easy.
Cancel any ChatGPT subscription you have. If enough people do so, it will hurt.
