    Again the issue here is with capitalism not with technology. I personally don’t see anything uniquely harmful that’s inherent in LLMs, and I think that it’s interesting technology that has a lot of legitimate uses. However, it’s clear to me that this tech will be used in horrible ways under our current economic system just like all other tech that’s used in horrible ways already.

    I’m not being fatalistic at all, I just think you’re barking up the wrong tree here.

      I already said my part in the other reply I just gave and it also answers most of this post.

      I will emphasize my first post in this thread: yes, LLMs are tools, and tools can be useful. I’d rather not give any inevitabilist arguments to the tool as if it requires special laissez-faire privileges that we don’t grant to, say, internal combustion engines or nuclear power.
