Use only grass fed, free roam LLMs.

Seriously though, ethical behavior is subjective. Do you want to reduce your carbon footprint? Do you care that many LLMs have stolen their training data? Is corporate corruption an issue for you?

At the end of the day, if you don’t like how open AI operates, don’t use that product.

Ethics and morals are ultimately defined by you. We have some ethics between us that align and some that don’t.

Personal ethics is a scale not a binary value. What one considers ethnical, someone else might consider unethical.

People have different ethics when it comes to affecting millionaire class who have more money than they know what to do with and those that just trying to make a living.

The more practical issue is legality. It proved that copyright is a flawed framework designed to stifle new ideas. Look at any other issue which lowers profit margins for all major industries and new law will get passed instantly. But now that the major industries are in disagreement since it increases profit for one, while theoretically lowering it to the other lobbying groups are in a rare position of being against each other, so nothing is being done about it.

One side issue is that open source licenses were struck a blow. Especially those that rely on contributions upstream from major corporations. Now all of that knowledge is part of LLMs which doesn’t offer contributions or attributions.
