I don’t need it to not exist. I need it to stay the fuck out of everyone’s lives unless they work in a lab of some kind.
That’s not really relevant here. This is more of a “genie is out of the bottle and now we have to learn how to deal with it situation”. The idea and technology of bots and AI training already exists. There’s no socioeconomic system that is going to magically make that go away.

I think the point you’re missing is that without the monetary incentive that arises under capitalism, there would be very little drive for anyone to build these wasteful AI systems. It’s difficult to imagine a group of people voluntarily amassing and then using the resources necessary for “AI” absent the desire to cash in on their investment. So you’re correct that an alternative economic system won’t “magically” make LLMs go away. I think it unlikely, however, that such wasteful nonsense would be used on any meaningful scale absent the perverse incentives of capitalism.

No imagination necessary.
I mean Dmitry Pospelov was arguing for AI control in the Soviet Union clear back in the 70s.

Just another way the state capitalist soviet union was closer to capitalism than socialism.
