“us, the trainers” is a bit of a misnomer, if the training is done mostly by silicon valley cultists like Sam Altman and his ilk, who have shown that they do not understand reality.
us: we generated the content of the internet, the books, etc. I do mean all of us, as the creators of the cultural landscape from which training data was drawn.
the trainers: these are the people who made choices to curate the training sets.
the shapers: these are the people like Altman who hire the trainers and shape what the AIs are for
So there is a progression here: the shapers hire the trainers who choose what to train on from the content that we created.
