You could try something like a network filter that is out of the control of the user (e.g. on the router or something like a Raspberry Pi running Pihole), but you'd probably have to curate the blocklist manually, unless somebody else has published an anti-LLM list somewhere. And of course, it will only be as effective as the user's ability to route around that blocklist dictates.

LLMs can also be run locally, so blocking all known network services that provide access still won't prevent a dedicated user talking to an AI.

LLMs can also be run locally

If one's at the point where one runs local LLM's, I would assume one is smart enough to explore the capabilities (or lack thereof) pretty quickly.

Took me less than a week to probe various models myself, concluding with "anybody considering AI's to be oracles of objective truth have no contact with reality".
