You're a politician. The sentiment leans anti in this cultural context at this time and so do your statements overall, such as if we look at this one and the rest and tally each one as positive or negative. Underlying you are more anti-AI than neutral. So your reply may have been technically true but it was deliberately misleading.

But you haven't really made a technical argument because your objection is not really technical. It's a type of politics.

It's obviously extremely extremely useful to have a simple API for accessing an LLM. It needs permissions like most things and the ability to limit download sizes/specific or maybe block use of external services if desired.

But anyway people will just fall back to a slightly worse alternative like a wrapper around WebLLM (that wraps WebGPU).

It's probably not politically feasible for you to take a different stance anyway.
