Glad you asked!

1) LLMs are created by scraping all the art and writing off the internet without creator’s compensation or consent, allowing companies to make billions of stolen labor

2) This tech allows companies to then fire the very employees whose work they stole. It’s like taking your blood and using it to power your robot replacement

3) The resulting auto-generated plagiarism slurry can be extremely realistic, allowing companies, governments, scammers etc to create an infinite deluge of propaganda, fake evidence, scams, revenge porn, and addictive meaningless slop flooding our eyes from cradle to grave, a kind of reality-obliterating internet pollution at a scale beyond human comprehension.

4) That’s not even counting the massive electricity drain of the server farms that are gobbling up land and the impending economic crash when the so called “abundance” promised by Silicon Valley vultures never meets their impossible promises.

LLMs are to societal trust what toxic runoff is to drinking water. And just like the pollution that comes from Exxon Mobile, this disaster is only possible when the government abdicates its regulatory responsibility because it’s been bought off by the CEOs responsible

TLDR:

PROS: You can make Judy Hopps make out with Martin Luther King

CONS: Mass unemployment, the death of reality, a permanent underclass addicted to a digital meth slot machine

“The United States has a rich history of overthrowing democracies around the world, and we have a rich history of siding with some of the world's biggest dictators. So this idea that we're out there protecting freedom & democracy, doesn't mesh with reality.”
