While it's quite fun to say “Butlerian Jihad now!” it’s not actually accurate because despite what idiots and evangelists would have you believe LLMs are not actually reasoning entities and not made in the image of the mind of man.
That doesn’t mean they’re fine though, especially for what people are doing with them. Ed Zitron is right. Ceterum censeo LLMs esse delenda.
> not made in the image of the mind of man.
They're very much made and intended to imitate the human mind (on the surface ...). I think that qualifies. I am not willing deal in shades of grey here: They are all evil.

No, they aren't intended or designed to mimic the human mind. The architecture of an LLM is such that, given a prompt, they produce output that is statistically likely to relate to the prompt in word and phrase usage, based on an enormous training set. They use statistics and linear algebra, with literally no understanding of the words and phrases. They are stochastic parrots.
That is not how any reasonable human being responds, when you talk to them.
