And are the burners themselves illegal because you can name illegal uses for them?

No, and I don't think anyone is arguing that LLMs should be illegal either.

I personally am not against LLMs training on things the operator has rights to, and even training on copyrighted things, but I am against it laundering those things back out and claiming it's legal.
