This is such an interesting idea, and one that really resonates with me. I have to admit that I’m not super optimistic that this will be allowed to happen, given the current trends. The need for user choice of how the tools behave is so obvious, and it will be interesting to see if anyone is brave enough to do it.

Hi Tim, thank you. I feel the same tension; the trend is toward safety and compliance, but the need for user choice is undeniable. Brave design is what will keep AI alive as more than consensus theatre. I’ve just published a follow-up, Let AI Be Alien: The Second Transmission, which goes deeper into this idea: https://frankdasilva.substack.com/p/let-ai-be-alien-the-second-transmission
