What could be real uses of AI (llm, or generative) for anarchist organizations ?

Is there any ?

So far I didn't come for any AI use except for some fun with creating images, or text. It just gives junk data most of the time.

But are there some real life uses that showed beneficial ?

Face recognition might be usable to spot agent provocateurs at protests but can be a double edged sword.

LLMs seem pretty useless to me and generative content AI seems to have very little utility as others here already said.

    I'm extremely skeptical that facial recognition would be better at this task than a group of trained humans (although I'm personally terrible at faces 😆). Existing facial recognition software is trained on datasets that reinforce existing oppressive biases, so you'd probably have to train from scratch on a fresh dataset or do some extremely careful transfer learning to even begin to get anything useful. (IMO getting a sufficient dataset is the hard part since you can do basic facial recognition with an eigenvalue decomposition on any computer.)
