Yeah, I'm seeing the absolute deluge of AI shovelware games. I know it generates money due to sheer volume, but to me that's just like all those online courses of "how to dropship". You're being one of the worst literal definitions of "waste of resources".
None of you can hear. You're all so afraid. There is OPPORTUNITY EVERYWHERE but you're so locked into your script there's no talking to any of you. It's so sad to see you limit yourselves. But in a way it's revelatory of the truth I'm speaking... the "i'm a porgammer" because ya downloaded other people's work is over, and the path is open to those ready to work and innovate. Good luck, but you don't need that because you've already decided you've lost.
I don't think the point you're trying to make is nearly as clear as you think it is.
I love how you spent so much effort to say literally fuck all, instead of presenting a real use case that isn't pumping out AI slop
