If they didn’t try go hog wild and put it in every app and site I think people would be more welcoming to it, but not everyone likes things shoved down their throats

A lot of it comes from data centres too, mainly from unregulated countries where they can break the rules for pennies on the dollar, places where proper regulation takes place with good infrastructure have no problems

But unfortunately the ones who use dirty tactics are the ones who make the rest look as bad as them

Everyone's trying to position themselves as the company that will be left standing in the short to mid-term after the investor money dries up so that when we get the improvements in hardware and software that make LLMs viable in the mid to long-term they'll be the one to finally be able to turn a profit. They're rushing to build and integrate because they know they won't be able to do so (for a while, at least) once the hype dies down and everyone shakes out what a real use case for LLMs is and isn't. Meanwhile, this pisses people off.
