Because it’s a naive take. Technology can help us make the world a better place for all - standing in the way are greedy pigs and asshole, ignorant politicians.
show me that magic llm which doenst infringe the copyright of nearly everybody, which doesnt have an unprecedentet impact on the enviroment to train and run, which wont be used to cut of people from their income, which isnt owned by technocratic billionaire assholes, which isnt peddled and promoted by fascist goverments, which doesnt halluzinate, which isnt a blackbox, which actually works and doesnt fail at the simplest tasks sometimes, which doesnt infringe my privacy(allegedly tbf, but you know). the list goes on.
sure, sure technology itself isnt evil. but thats not a hill i want to die on in case of llms. they’re problematic on so many levels. full stop. i dont think its a naive take to have some skepticism against this clusterfuck. potentially some technologies could make the world a better place. but llms dont fit into this category.
Okay, but hear me out, what if we make one that isn’t dumb?
Machines. Should. Not. Think.
I really don’t see how we could state this any more clearly.
So we should make one with human intelligence, you’re saying?
LLMs aren’t the enemy, malicious politicians are
Why not both?

“AI” isn’t the problem, our approach to it is.
