"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I'd say know your tools. People misusing "stuff" and being vulnerable to it in general is nothing new. Yet, in a lot of cases, we rely on independence and maturity in the decisions people make. This is no different to LLMs. However, of course meaningful (technological) safeguards should be implemented wherever possible.
By their own nature, there is no way to implement robust safeguards in a LLM. The technology is toxic and the best that could happen is anything else, hopefully not based on brute forcing the production of a stream of tokens, is developer and makes obvious LLMs are a false path, a road that should not be taken.
If AI is that dangerous, it should need a licence to use, same as a gun or car or heavy machinery.
