LLMs exist to crush labour. That's not even my surmise, the people paying billions of dollars to fund this stuff are extremely open and explicit that this is their goal.
There are no ethical use cases for LLMs at this point in time. Maybe when the bubble has popped thoroughly. Not before.

cc @Zitron whose rants about the #GenAI industry bubble are spot-on in almost all aspects, except for this medical angle. Brain-damaged market stays irrational for even longer.
Anec-data: Among my colleagues, some of the heaviest GenAI useres are those who were open about either their severe Covid or the neurological problems they developed afterwards :-(
Among my circles, one person has clear long Covid outcomes, but many more use AI auto-complete; most of them with appropriate review, as a useful tool.
Even if I do keep joking about it being the eternal 2021, Watson was a very high profile failure of catastrophic proportions. One that nearly killed people, repeatedly.

i'm not really concerned about people at home running their 3-5 tokens a second, but ~0% of LLM users and advocates and apologists and "but it's useful for" guys are doing that
