Genuinely, the only problem I see with the development of LLMs and AI in general is that said development has a massive tumor on its back called Corporate Interest. That's pretty much the one and only cause for absolutely every destructive, shady, or downright immoral aspect tied to these things nowadays...
As tools in and of themselves, yes! LLMs have an immense potential not of replacing people, but of helping people get stuff done faster, which in turn would give us a lot of extra time to polish the everloving spit out of the stuff we make!
LLM/AI research should be 100% non-profit and democratised, with well-established guidelines and full transparency, as I see it. This is a huge step in our development as a species, and Altman-likes are not the people who should be in charge of it.
Edit: as for VLMs, I kinda' see them as a fad, to be honest. It still irks me when anyone adds "art" to anything artificially generated at the moment, but I get the feeling people will tire of the novelty once the need for genuine art will cease being satisfied by the above-mentioned.
- oh, nonon, VLMs only accept text and images as input. they don't produce images. they just have image inputs as an option.
  what you are refering to are "image generators", or "diffusion networks". unfortunately, many news outlets already only use AI images for their stories. i find this pretty sad, cuz i liked that they made a human put together some panel for the news! but not anymore... now it's a mixture of stock footage and AI image crap... big sad ;(
  yes, i am negative to image gen models.
  alsoalso yes, communism go, non-profits are cool, and i wish what you said became true
  
  Oooh, thank you for the clarification and I apologise for the confusion!
  We really are losing a lot of our personality as a species by using generated imagery, yes... It's, unfortunately, been a general trend over the last couple of decades in pretty much all things, architecture especially imho (referring to "average" buildings, not the ones specifically designed to be crazy, which are cool, but far and few between...)
  
  yes.... older cities look so much more interesting! where u can see the wooden beams and such! for some reason building big blocks is cool now tho... I guess it's good for storage, but surely people don't this super boring.
