    I’ve been using AI to make a free weather app that isn’t cancer. i would never in a million years charge for it. it is a work i am creating for the public using publicly sourced knowledge. the fact it’s taken 5 months and hundreds of my own personal hours to produce these projects doesn’t negate the fact ALL OF THE CODE has been generated via sources i didn’t ask for permission from, indirectly.

    I’d have to be some kind of asshole to charge for my programs. I feel bad enough including a donation link buried deep in the UI. (I’m neurodivergent and receiving money makes me feel like dog shit and guilty so really I’m being selfish i guess)
