It’s not expensive for me to run a local LLM, I just use the hardware I’m already using for gaming. Electricity is cheap and most people with a gaming PC probably use more electricity gaming than they would running their own LLM and asking it some questions.

I’m also against shoving AI in evening, and not making it Opt-In. I’m also worried about privacy and concentration of power etc.

But just outright saying LLMs are bad is rediculous.

And saying there is no good reason to use them is rediculous. Can we stop doing that.
