The whole injecting AI into everything has been quite annoying really. There are still many workplaces that prefer deterministic results like accounting and finance and Xero injecting AI into reconciliation or improperly trained individuals ruining the whole datasets on excel has been an absolute nightmare.

I should not have paid for it.

Not at all. I support individual paying for foss projects and then corporations should be made to as well. Corporation will not have morals until there is social pressure, even so they just pretend to or regulated by government standards.

We are on the same page, if you read my other comments.

Large corporations and exploitative, over demanding individuals are always going to be this way. We can only prepare for these kinds. I agree on paying them subscriptions on a regular basis, just as we pay large corp projects, and more people need to be involved.

Exactly right.

So are every other individual projects

We all do as well. Many individuals who use Linux, LibreOffice and other legendary open source works would be much better off if we as individuals performed our moral obligations towards developers and volunteers. I think we would be in a different world if we paid them even a fraction of what we pay to big corps.

I agree with you.

A corporation has no obligations towards foss projects, no different to any individual being made to fund them.
