    This is the correct way to resist capitalist use of LLMs. Corps don’t care about your incessant whinging, if people want to see something different then they have to roll up their sleeves and build alternatives outside corporate control.

      Yes, it’s a beautiful use. Let’s turn their weapons against them. My current fighting dream is combining OSS cooperatives with the syndicalist movement, an independent socialist press and a militant socialist organization to pressure capitalism from all sides, and from all fronts possible.

        Yup, undercutting their business models with open source tools that lower the barrier to entry is the way. The biggest barrier for coops tends to be securing the initial funding since investors don’t have any incentive to throw money at a company they can’t own a chunk of. So, lowering initial costs makes it much easier for people to get started.
