Unfortunately "AI," and LLMs in general are, at present, wholly inseparable from the people who use them, and especially, (and more pressingly), the ~~people~~ corporations that make them. This is the reason I maintain my opposition to "AI" (and LLMs in general) despite machine learning as a field and LLMs as technology being truly fascinating, and having immense potential.

In my ideal world the corporations pushing "AI" wouldn't exist, the datasets and recipes would be open, and model training would be a community led effort with Folding@Home style distributed compute used for training, pretty much removing the viability of "AI" companies. Without "AI" companies pushing for adoption, strong social pushback can be used to reign in the slopification of the commons. With those two together (and likely many other smaller changes elsewhere) LLMs can be seen for what they really are and their real pros and cons evaluated.

But that world isn't currently feasible, and probably won't ever be. Neither is toppling even a single corrupt corporation on the level of Alphabet, or Microsoft. So all we can do is evaluate whether we consider certain software's use of "AI"/LLMs is acceptable, and advocate for not using them. Which is why I think efforts like openslopware, and pages like this are a positive thing, even if I don't necessarily agree with some of the specifics.
