Hating on everything AI is trendy nowdays. Most of these people can't give you any coherent explanation for why. They just adopt the attitude of people around them who also don't know why.
I believe the general reasoning is something along the lines of not wanting bad corporations to profit from their content for free. So it's just a matter of principle for the most part. Perhaps we need to wait for someone to train LLM on the freely available to everyone data on Lemmy and then we can interview it to see what's up.
Mega co operations like Microsoft, Google are evil. Very easy explanation. Even if it was a good open source company scraping the data to train ai models, people should be free to delete the datta they input. It's pretty simple to understand.
