"But Davinci Resolve is also free & full of AI, I don't hear you complaining about that!" - yeah, but 1. Black Magic makes money on hardware & 2. what we now call AI has been in video editing for decades & they're not trying to add a "push to make a video" button.
Canva has one way of making back what they spent on acquiring & maintaining a graphics suite & that's getting users to pay for it & they *are* offering "push to create" genAI features.

@futzle - and yes, I did watch the "how can it be free?" video & it's Silicon Valley VC bullshit, delivered by someone who was either duped or is lying.
It's the same bet every "we will grow & profit from knock-on effects of our free offering" digital service provider has made & lost; it's only a matter of time before investors demand faster growth, or the gambit fails, or both.
Happened 100s of times before.

@jwcph Resolve is also a Freemium product, you have to pay if you want to use it with a serious camera etc.
