We're going back to server-side rendering.
It's funny how both anti-AI and pro-AI folks think they're the one in the middle. But the anti-AI crowd is proclaiming that any use is the devil!, and one drop means the whole project is forever worthless, and ten minutes will make your brain dribble out your ears... while the pro-AI crowd just says it's probably fine. Not miraculous. Flawed and suspect. Local would be better. Basically would you please just relax about the chatbot, and condemn companies doing mass layoffs for any reason?
