They love to syphon up all the data for 'training' so it could be argued that it's mutually beneficial... but it's comparable to that zombie virus/fungus that infects and takes over the caterpillar

    I agree with your view but I also wonder if it's misguided. If we were to use it as a tool, but the tool was made of parts that are immoral does that taint everything about it? I use a phone and a calculator, both are made with metals that are mined in dangerous conditions by exploited laborers. A pixel phone and Gemini AI are both products of google, wouldn't either be enough to discredit a user?

    There's no ethical consumption under capitalism (derogatory)

    LLM the technology is interesting and impressive. the way companies are shoving it into everything and trying to sell it as a replacement for employees is awful. The way the AI companies are behaving is awful.
