AI is a tool that should be kept open to everyone

I agree with this principle, however the reality is that given the massive computational power needed to run many (but not all) models, the control of AI is in the hands of the mega corps.

Just look at what the FAANGs are doing right now, and compare to what the mill owners were doing in the 1800s.

The best use of LLMs, right now, is for boilerplating initial drafts of documents. Those drafts then need to be reviewed, and tweaked, by skilled workers, ahead of publication. This can be a significant efficiency saving, but does not remove the need for the skilled worker if you want to maintain quality.

But what we are already seeing is CEOs, etc, deciding to take "a decision based on risk" to gut entire departments and replace them with a chat bot, which then invents hallucinates the details of a particular company policy, leading to a lower quality service, but significantly increased profits, because you're no longer paying for ensured quality.

The issue is not the method of production, it is who controls it.
