But then we get to use those AI tools.

The refrain here comes down not to "AI" but mostly to "the AI bot assault" which is a different thing. Sure lets have an discussion about badly behaved and overzealous web scrapers. As for credit, I've asked AI for it's references and gotten them. If my information is merely mushed into AI training model I'm not sure why I need credit. If you discuss this thread with your friends are you going to give me credit?

Yes. I get to buy access to them. They're providing an expensive to provide service that requires specialized expertise. I don't see the problem with that.

"If you discuss this thread with your friends are you going to give me credit?"

Yes. How else would I enable my friends to look it up for themselves?

6 months from now when you've internalized this entire thread are you even going to remember where you got it from?

Why are you shifting the discussion by adding two new variables (time/memory)?

Because that's how one interacts with AI.
