I don't understand it either. I suspect it is the fear for their own wellbeing. The fear is well placed. But the response is perplexing. The only way to deal with this challenge is to try to stay ahead of it. Not to stick your head in the sand.

For me its the injustice of stealing data, scrapers incurring huge costs to open source projects, companies exploiting cheap labour in labelling that data and finally the growing environmental cost that makes me not want to use LLMs.

I have that issue too. But for literature it’s something more primal.

Fiction feels like the ultimate distillation of the human experience. A way to share perspective and experience. And having some algorithm flatten that feels utterly macabre.

Not to be too dramatic. I know that not all fiction is transcendent. But still. There’s something so utterly gross about using a machine for it.
