@hypolite Yeah, I’ll admit the licensing idea is “cute.” It was just something that came to mind on the spot. As I wrote in my piece, Acting materialistically in an imperfect world: LLMs as means of production and social relations, I think there are still many other potential ways to reclaim LLMs from private corporations. The point is, the whole act of rejecting LLMs isn't going to do much to help us achieve what we want. I believe the only hope lies in reclaiming the LLMs themselves for the public good.
