  • In a post below someone shared an article about it.

    But generally I don't speak in a way to add a peer reviewed scientific study below everything I say. Nobody does. Because it would be incredibly stupid and inefficient to do it, especially under some irrelevant comment in an irrelevant thread no one besides us will ever read. Incredibly stupid.

  • Sure, but then you could say that about almost everything. It would be very hard to imagine someone getting addicted to ghb. I have never heard of that.

    I think when talking about drugs we have to be truthful. Especially to kids. Exaggerating and trying to scare with some imaginary addictive properties doesn't work, because when some of them figure out it's all a lie, they will not recognize other harmful patterns of behavior that might truly get them addicted.

  • I don't think this is really meant to be a memory function. From this function an incredible dataset of epic proportions will be created of user computer behaviours and how certain software is used. Openai will then get metadata to train ai that will be able to use any software and do anything on a computer and understand and mimic all possible stuff. I don't think they will literally sell the data, but in some way this will be used to train ai, probably with metadata of it. Honestly I don't see a big deal. I guess it has to be like that. I think it would be fair to make all ai opensource since it's trained on everyone, but for sure that's not going to happen. But I prefer to have it than not.

  • I will only repeat this once more : Full Adobe package costs me less than an hour of work per month. Adobe software makes me save more than an hour per month (probably more like an hour per day).

    That is an equation. An equation that favours Adobe against the alternatives.

    There are no feelings here, just an equation of time and money.

  • Your still don't get it. Adobe brings the user more value, because using their software users are able to work quicker, finishing more work and earning more money. Adobe subscription is negligible. Freelancers earn more in an hour of work. But save a lot more.

    Even people like me, who are for some weird reason especially inclined to use FOSS, we try to dabble in it, every few years check is anything has changed. But it doesn't. It remains the same. Pros can't afford not to use the best software and nothing comes close to ps, ai. Sad but true.

  • I'm sure you can get even more poetic about it without trying too hard, but at the end of the day you still end up with a tool that does the job significantly better and faster than the alternative - a tool that brings more value even though it costs more money.

  • :)

    Tried them all. They don't compare.

    There are some that can be replaced easily, like Adobe premier, maybe even after effects. Audacity for sure. Not indesign, Not illustrator, not photoshop. Not only because the alternative are worse, but because everyone else uses Adobe and its incredibly easier to collaborate. If you are a pro in graphic design, like a real pro that these tools are a daily use, you can't use anything else but Adobe.
