I think LLMs are a great tool for searching through lots of information. I just think their monopolization and monolithical mass adoption is bad. The people who run them are bad. The scale at which they do it is bad. The dangers are very real and bad.

But they're great at sifting through and collating information. Private ones are great. The tech is awesome. The current implementation is problematic. Like we got nuclear energy and atom bombs at the same time. This is that.
