MODERATORS
Gotta be honest, I've reached the point where I no longer think there are any good and ethical uses for LLMs. They're built on gargantuan theft, they hurt people's minds, they're addictive, and they make everything they touch worse.
Burn the companies that make them to the ground and salt the earth.
What about something build with a local model with only a dictionary and thesaurus? All those points apply to something as simple as a spellcheck, or any other tool that modernizes our workflow. Any tool can be abused.
I think most authors would rather write new stories than read through their completed ones 6x looking for errors again.
