As I am replying, you got 9 upvotes and 9 downvotes; looks like the perfect "storm" to put my hot take too.

We got psychotic people on both side, when you get this grade of polarization people usually lose the perspective.

AI is a technology, an human logical entity like math: AI works on very advanced (probabilistic) math. Math is not the evil... but an actual evil does exist.

There's a difference between a LLM chatbot that runs on your local GPU... and one in the cloud.

The chatbot on your GPU is "trapped" by your question, your need, your choices.

Today the chatbot on the cloud will tell you that Elon Musk is a controversial person, tomorrow it will tell you Elon Musk is the savior of the Earth and you're not worthy to kiss is feet.

People seeing absolute evil in AI, are against you running your chatbot locally, on your PC.

People enthusiastic about AI will accept any "gift" (or AI GF) Elon Musk will give them.
