I don't believe LLMs are inherently evil. They can in some situations be the right tool to use. Unfortunately they came in a time where technical literacy was already declining and was also pushed by greedy corporations and investors. It's no the tool but rather how or by whom it's being used that's the problem.
If we start treating it like the auxiliary tool it's instead of the primary developer, writer, and manager, it becomes just another tool to support the process instead of replacing human skill and critical thinking. Just like how the computer and calculators did not replace professionals but made them more efficient, or how the internet and stack overflow didn't replace problem solving and critical thinking but made the process faster and gave you time to focus on more important tasks.
Coming back to OPs analogy, cars aren't inherently evil but it's the culture associated with them. With the right adaptation, technology, and infrastructure they can be a very amazing tool without replacing walking or human skill. If you're concerned about the environment we can find sustainable solutions (EVs), if you're concerned about loosing the human aspect you can find a human-first solution (infrastructure that rewards walking and public transport for short travel but allows car for long-distance or in emergency).
The issue is not with the technology itself but how we've been using it and how greedy individuals are pushing the unhealthy version for their own benefits despite a healthy adoption being possible.
