    The fact that AI is “not perfect” is a HUGE FUCKING PROBLEM. Idiots across the world, and people who we’d expect to know better, are making monumental decisions based on AI that isn’t perfect, and routinely “hallucinates”. We all know this.

    Every time I think I’ve seen the lowest depths of mass stupidity, humanity goes lower.

      If you thought people were dumb before LLMs… just know that now those people have offloaded what little critical thinking they were capable of to these models.

      The dumbest people you know are getting their opinions validated by automated sycophants.

      Businesses are accustom to the privilege of hurting people to function. A few peasant sacrifices are just the cost of doing business to them, they are detached from the consequences of their actions.

      What is ever perfect, how can you tell?

      It’s a tool. Just like any other tool: if you use it in stupid ways you might get hurt or cause harm.

      The problem, as always, seem to be human to me

        All tools are not equally safe nor should they all be publicly available.

        A chainsaw is a tool that you might cause harm with if you use it in stupid ways. We don’t give chainsaws out to children. We don’t use chainsaws for cutting dinner.

        There are human elements to the problem but that’s not a big reveal.
