We talk a lot about enshittification of technology, so tell me about technology that is getting better!

I personally love the progress of electric scooters. I’ve been zooming around on a 400$ escooter for a year and it works so well. It has a range of around 20 miles and top speed of 15 mph, so it works just super well for my uses, and 10 years ago scooters with that range/speed/price were no where near a thing.

    Assuming you mean LLM’s and image generation, yeah open source is much better! Cause that way it’ll be used for dumb silly things.

    An LLM in a video game? Sure, could be cool. A game like spore where it generates species, and it uses image generation? Could be cool. Also if an artist wants inspiration from AI images, I don’t hate on anyone’s process. All those things I feel like are better if the people using them are in control of them.
