Comment on Are there any genuine benefits to AI?

No one knows the long term benefits/costs yet, but its potentially more empowering to small creators than large ones. Everyone has access to the same tools, and for instance, if it can offload a bunch of work from an indy game dev, that could let them focus more on the part of the game design process they are most skilled at/interested in.

Sure, the public doesn't have access to a cutting edge research AI that public results from were only published a couple of days ago.

Right, it's a new technology, its usage is being curated. Even once they release a publicly accessible application, it'll be like going to the hammer renting store, you get to go there and use a hammer, for a fee sometimes, you cant bring the hammer home or own it, they regulate what you can work on with it, it can be overused and inaccessible while demand is high, they can discontinue access when they want.
And they can and do give more access to wealthier clients.
