I think the problem you're seeing is not with LLMs per se, but with capitalism. Imagine we have a quite useful machine that's reducing the amount of work needed to accomplish stuff, and all normal people are afraid of that machine simply because they worry they'll have less work. How backwards is that!

If we didn't let people live off the work of others, as the capitalists do, then we could all rejoice in that we've found yet another way of reducing the labor required to produce stuff.

Yet, in the real world, it seems as despite the progress of technology, the labor of the everyman is constant, and only the richest get more and more shiny jets and yachts.
