Maybe it has to do with the fact that you can use it to summarize or reply to any text without the need to read it yourself, for the sake of "productivity".

Strong disagree. One of my favorite use cases for LLM chatbots is to satisfy random niche curiosities whenever they cross my mind and get pointers for further reading. This often leads to going down some niche rabbit hole and learning some interesting stuff in the process.

Whenever I tried the same with Google in the past, more often than not I couldn't find what I was looking for, because I didn't know the correct keywords to search for in order to start getting relevant results. With ChatGPT & co. I can just pose the question in natural language, get results and continue exploring.

That would be as close to a declaration of war as you can get without firing a bullet.

The immediate and obvious response would be for the foreign branches of those companies to be declared "of national interest", nationalized and forced to keep operating.

> * Everyone over estimates their driving ability vs the average

Exactly. If there's an issue, I'd much rather delegate control to the pilots or train drivers who have been trained to deal with such issues.

I'll take a trip by train or plane rather than by car every single time.

I feel WAY more safe knowing that the vehicle is operated by trained professionals and there's an extremely robust system around them to ensure safety, rather than whatever semblance of control I think I have driving my car.

Just curious, do you have dual citizenship? If not, what's exactly your plan to acquire a legal resident status quickly, and where?

So you don't do anything because you have a job you need to keep and a kid to take care of, but you're perfectly okay with moving to a completely different country on short notice?

I'd say a couple of reasons:

- The American political system has been very successful in telling its people that the only acceptable way to show discontent and enact change is by voting on elections.

- Lots of people are okay with it because it can only happen to the "bad guys", and why would it ever happen to them since they're the "good guys"... right?

How do you measure whether some output corresponds to 8 hours of work, and not 4 or 16 hours?

Isn't that what the author means?

"it still requires genuine expertise to spot the hallucinations"

"works very well if you do know what you are doing"

Even assuming that's the case, everyone's acting like throwing more GPUs at the problem is somehow gonna get them to AGI
