I personally don’t trust Snowden. Looking at the difference between how he was treated and how Assange was treated. One guy gets to rot in prison, other guy gets movies made about him from Hollywood. Snowden is very much controlled opposition in my mind.
But that being said, I think he is truthful about OpenAI. Which sucks, because now I and many others love using chat gpt.
It’s possible to self host these things though. I read an article about it here:

But probably not worth the money for most people.
I think most people are not spending enough time reading about propaganda and how it’s used in 2020. Its very effective and people don’t know they have been exposed to it.
We who live in the western world frequently believe propaganda is done by Russia and China but not by our own leaders.
