No, literally a small-f fascist, the broader far-right authoritarian ideology named by reference to the Nazi’s Italian ideological cousins but which includes the Nazis among is defining examples, but not literally a member of the National Socialist German Worker’s Party.
(Sure. “Nazi” is frequently used figuratively to mean “fascist”, but that's not “literally”. Except, perhaps, in the sense where literally is itself used figuratively as a intensifier for a figurative description, but at least not literally “literally”.)
So literally not Nazis… but you have been programmed to go to extremes in any political disagreement. I suspect they are both better informed and likely better members of society than you giving evidence of.
It's really unfortunate that Hacker News has become an echo chamber of AI trash, but I suppose that's to be expected from people who have a vested interest in OpenAI and Anthropic, to the detriment of literally the entire world. I'm quite confident that YC is taking deliberate action to portray LLMs as a good thing much like Fox News.
LLMs are not only OpenAI and Anthropic. Some of us liberally use local models as well. You can't just portray the entire chunk of innovation as "trash". It's like calling the invention of plastics as such. Even though it has brought tons of problems, there's just no way to uninvent things back into oblivion. It's illogical to ask people to stop talking about plastic, and encourage them to not use any - that's just dumb and pointless and won't make any problems magically disappear.
Au contraire - if anything, we should talk about LLMs more and we should find more ways to democratize this technology. Silencing and scolding people won't help fight OpenAI and Anthropic's hegemony.
