most models are built on theft anyway, especially if you take the GDPR viewpoint

that's a good point - the reformulation from AI tools is as you say "eroding the teeth" of the GPL based solutions - but the cost to make these solutions is dramatically reduced.

I'd even go further and say that the biggest problem of free software has always been the lack of frontend/designer willing to put in the contributions to make the UX a pleasant experience.

I guess we could argue that with the frontend skills of recent models it's also getting better.

Now the question will be after all that how much we will be willing to pay for a slightly better integrated experience ?
