i think people who worked on llms either thought their work would geniunely make world better, or they are “just following orders” people.

LLMs do a really good job interpreting natural language inputs and deciphering the meaning behind it. The issue is they’re being presented as a fully fleshed out analytical machine that can replace entire job roles instead of the interpretation layer towards other processing they should be used as. The grifters are selling something as someone it very much is not

Right? The idea of a natural language user interface isn’t a bad one, and I think it will actually have positive impacts in the long run. We’re just running into a “calculator problem” where people think that if you have a calculator you don’t need to understand math.

the thing is, these ‘grifters’ have insane pull on our society, even across borders. That this is even happening is result of bigger problem that should be addressed. corporations should be SEVERELY limited in their power across the globe and results of not doing so is evident all around. I think way things are going, it will either lead to things getting even worse by forcing llm to everything or there will at some point be severe backlash which likely restricts llms badly and deprives us of their positive impacts too. Or the worse case scenario is llm usage increases and things get slightly less worse, but corporations gain even bigger grip on our throats via them.
