Isn't everyone, and isn't Microsoft the one helping to make these tools available?

And how will mere 'blanket bans' prevent hackers from finding ways to use and exploit Microsoft AI tools, after all is that not what hackers do?

They must not be very good hackers if they have to use a third party service instead of making their own local ai and using it for their shenanigans 🤷
