Watching AI Being Used to Fight Back Against Corporate Greed

ArtCraft is an attempt to reverse-engineer the Adobe suite and make it open-source.

PlayStation 5 is being jailbroken to support backward compatibility with PS3, something Sony lied about being impossible.

Nintendo Switch 2 is also getting an AI-powered jailbreak.

From the PCMag article from the first link:

Is it ethical? That's up to you to decide. If you ask me, the answer is clear: No way. The whole thing just feels icky, in a nebulous area between plagiarism and piracy.

Nebolous area between plagiarism and piracy sounds like an apt description of this entire (Gen)AI era. You live in the world you built, corpo.

That said, this AI reverse-engineering can be used against indie developers as well. In the end, AI is making everything worse.
