We don't live in the 90s anymore. The bandwidth CPU cost is moot unless you are spinning up thousands of GPUs to render an HTML page.

Also the claims of someone else's labor and profiteering is exactly what Google does

What Google does is mutually beneficial. Stealing content to reheat and serve in an LLM is very different.

[deisteve]

Google that creates monopoly on top of the scraped data and uses third party content to do so?

LLM just places that ability at the ends of the user (local LLM strictly speaking)

[__loam]

No it doesn't. The end state of a Google search is a human interacting directly with a site.
