      Like all of human knowledge, I swear you antillm people are out of your mind.

      Here we have a way to bring coding and creation to the masses at a much lower bar and most of the LLM projects I see are MIT licensed, it’s literally a revolution for open source but half of you are pearl clutching and acting like god damn Microsoft.

        You are missing the most important questions here: who can afford it, and who owns it.

        It’s easy to be pro LLM when $20 a month is not a big deal.

          Self host an open model, but yeah 20 a month is not that expensive for what you can do with it.

          But that’s not what anyone in this thread is saying, they’re saying LLM code bad and stealing so let’s poison open source projects. Also sharing code is bad now, when I’m sure many of these people would claim they like open source code.

          Again, I think knowledge and code should be free for all to use so that we all benefit from it.

            I figured you wouldn’t be able to look past your own personal experience. I’m sorry to say that most people outside your bubble cannot afford either the subscription nor the hardware to run usable LLMs locally.

            “Sharing code is bad now” because a handful of companies scraped it and not only they haven’t given anything back, they are reselling it in different shapes, and telling people that now all that data is proprietary. So, yes, stolen is an apt word for it.

            Anyway, all this talk about “democratizing” knowledge is bullshit. Libraries democratized knowledge. The internet democratized knowledge. Anyone can learn how to code if they put the time and read a book and practice.

            But delegated thinking is the opposite of acquiring knowledge, so what the hell are you people yapping about.
