No one who is impressed by LLMs should ever be permitted to make decisions which affect anyone not similarly cognitively impaired.

On their own as an advancement in computing LLMs are impresive, but tech and finance bros overinflated the perception of their performance well beyond what's reasonable to try to discipline workers for wanting more rights.

From a computing perspective the thing I find saddest is that everyone will hate anything having to do with AI in the future because of this bullshit. Given ownership by the people, more research into the field could actually liberate us all more from tedious labor.

I agree. The tech of an LLM is really cool and impressive. But what the tech market and finance markets have made of it is just really fucking sad. I really hope the bubble fucking bursts
