At the end of the day, LLM/AI/ML/etc is still just a glorified computer program. It also happens to be absolutely terrible for the environment.
Insert "fraction of our power" meme here
Yes, they're all computer programs, no, they're not all as spectacularly energy, water and money intensive, as reliant on mass plagiarism as LLMs.
AI is a much, much more varied field of research than just LLMs... or, well, rather, it was, untill the entire industry decided to go all in on what 5 years ago was just one of many, many, radically different approaches, such that people now basically just think AI and LLM are the same thing.
