I would like to go on record to say that I don't hate LLMs. That would be like disowning maths.
I hate how people sell it with promises that are simply lies and urging people to use it for things that it is unsuitable for, with the commercial LLMs how they train models on stolen data, how users talk themselves into believing they're talking to a human or something human-like while deskilling themselves, how institutions and organizations shoehorn it into every fucking thing, the way it is usurping computing resources and increasing prices for personal computing, how the big companies underhandedly continuously threaten everyone with "if we don't invest enough the Terminators will get us" and how it is used for very obvious large-scale financial fraud. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
