No, but the whole point of Doctorow's Enshittification essay is that it inevitably will. In the same way animals keep evolving into crabs due to convergent evolution, social media companies will keep turning into shit because the market incentives push them that way.
The problem is you can't go back to that well repeatedly. We've played the first two games. The unknown is pretty well known at this point. It's like monster horror movies: none of the sequels are any good unless they pull an Alien/Aliens and switch genre to action.
They're also one of the companies trying to destroy the NLRB.
There will 100% be a policy to disable it. Microsoft may shit on their retail users, but there's no way they'd force it on their enterprise clients. It's a security and compliance nightmare and they know it.
People remember the parody, which is usually modified to be more recognizable. Like Darth Vader never said "Luke, I am your father"; in the movie it's actually "No, I am your father".
This isn't a new issue. Wolfram alpha has been around for 15 years and can easily handle high school level math problems.
The same thing that is already happening in Turkey, India and Saudi Arabia? Musk's Twitter has no problem censoring people when it's to help right-wing authoritarians.
It's more that 2d projections of 3d objects are wonky and unintuitive.
Artists who rips off other great works are still developing their talent and skills. They can then go on to use to make original works. The machine will never produce anything original. It is only capable of mixing together things it has seen in its training set.
There is a very real danger that of ai eviscerating the ability for artists to make a living, making it where very few people will have the financial ability to practice their craft day in and day out, resulting in a dearth of good original art.
