Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I'm definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!

A lot of people are going to get fucked if they are...

It's using the "startup method" where they gave away a good service for free, but they already cut back on resources when it got popular. So what you read about it being able to do six months ago, it can't do today.

Eventually they'll introduce a paid version that might be able to do what the free one did.

But if you're just blindly trusting it, you might have months of low quality work and haven't noticed.

Like the lawyers recently finding out it would just make up caselaw and reference cases. We're going to see that happen more and more as resources are cut back.

It’s been notorious for doing that from the very beginning though
