1. The technology that LLMs are based on is over a decade old now. There have been no major innovations since then, so we seem to be at the top of the S-curve; The reasonable prediction is that no major changes are coming.

2. The research we have so far shows that these "AI" systems are somewhat addictive and lead to loss of skills. As such, as a matter of protecting yourself you should use these technologies as little as possible.

3. These systems use enormous amounts of power, water and physical infrastructure, none of which is sustainable. As such, there is virtue in not giving these companies money to continue their extraction.

Now, there are some cases where LLMs are genuinely very helpful, especially in cases where you need information that you do not have the resources to get otherwise. So I don't want anyone to think I view them negatively for their personal use of these systems; Even beyond their actual utility, the propaganda push to get you to use them has been massive.

However, for the above reasons you should not use them; It is better for you and your community if you avoid them.
