Why i oppose the use of LLMs
Last modified : 10/04/2026 15:57 UTC
I choose not to any LLM or "AI" for anything I have control over.
I'm making this choice because:
This technology was built by unethically stealing the hard work of millions without any consent or compensation.
This technology has and is still constantly scraping data, including personal data, from people without their knowledge or consent, in complete disregard of the privacy laws we have to protect us.
This technology unnecessarily uses vast amounts of energy in a world where using more energy sadly usually means more pollution.
This technology is working on devaluating labor in order to enrich even more the already rich, aggravating poverty everywhere.
This technology is misleadingly being sold as a solution to problems it cannot solve.
This technology is supercharging disinformation and manipulation online, centralizing an incredible power of influence in the hands of a few controlling billionaires.
This technology is increasingly being used by authoritarian governments in order to surveil and control the people.
This technology atrophies our creativity and capability to think, as well as harming our social relationships.
