I agree. I think that all AI companies need to crash and burn. But it'd be disingenuous to claim that what these models are doing is completely different than what humans are doing. Humans don't pull stuff out of thin air. We are products of our upbringing and schooling. I say that, because I hate our current copyright laws with a burning passion and have done so long before LLMs showed up. It's possible to hate copyright and AI companies.

2 points to consider.

  1. Humans can't digest the entirety of the internet
  2. Humans transform through lived experience. At worst current ai is just the statistical correlation of existing information at best you could say a model is trained by a humans experience. Neither are the same.

I don't think llms are without value, but treating them like they think or create new things is the problem imho.
