I don’t disagree with people saying this isn’t a terrible UX pattern to ask more companies to do, but you also can’t say "twitter needs to make money somehow!" and then shoot a rev model in the foot like the richest man in the world is currently.

As a new batch of people get into ML Art/image making, its important to point out ML is "conservative" (read into that politically however you want). It is always based on past data (1 year, 100 years, etc) so it will never truly envision "the future"
