Ignorance ai's shutdown was inevitable
I personally don't like the current actions of Chai, but I do think that ignorance was pretty dumb in its execution. The first thing I thought when I saw the release of ignorance ai was that they would get shut down quickly. They used Chai's LLM, which I'm pretty sure is owned by Chai, and so its use is controlled by Chai, and provided a free service that rivaled the paid subscription service of the Chai app. Chai is a business with the goal of making money. It makes perfect business sense that Chai would shut ignorance down. I personally don't hold any grudges against Chai for taking down Ignorance ai, it was inevitable, but I still am mad at how it betrayed its users with the whole limited messages bs
