Makes sense, especially for a magazine called “current affairs”.

We shouldn’t give the AI companies even more avenue to influence people, some things must remain human.

Human written text inherently has more value.

Anyone can sling LLM generated text around, it’s boring and uninteresting.

Sorry, what?

The article didn't "include" the zinger, the cop said it. If you think it's an inappropriate thing for a cop to say (I do) then the article is not to blame for you being angry. The cop is.

The article didn't enrage me. The video did. The actions of the local politicians and police did.

Agree, I don’t buy the doom and gloom that coding is dead and all our jobs are going away (some will).

But the damage that LLMs have done to the social aspect of work is horrible. Beyond horrible.

> same time customer satisfaction will get better.

This part just can't be true though, right?

We have all been in numerous customer service scenarios where all we want to do is talk to a real human and that is denied to us, and it's a terrible customer experience!

Sure, using an LLM would be better than some of the sort of "menu option" style customer service calls. But there is no way it's better than talking to an actual human being

This is so untrue its actually insane to me that anyone could believe this.

The real world is so messy, and specifically cancer/biology is insanely messy and certainly not well specified.

You should close chatgpt and read a book sometime.

1. The LLMs have surely ingested hundreds if not thousands of books on chess.

2. The study (along with other posters here) show the models can’t even stick to following the rules of the game

Isn’t that the tech industry motto?

We should celebrate when people make ethical choices.

Not berate them because they didn't make it sooner.

This. If you cant communicate your ideas properly to a human who has infinitely more awareness of the scenario/business/world/etc.

How are you going to prompt effectively and not allow the LLM to infer a bunch of nonsense?

This to me is the key reason people are so obsessed with using an LLM for everything.

They’re completely opposed to experiencing any type of friction.

Ignorance of the law is not immunity from the law though. That's pretty well established no?

right... AI will magically fix greed and we'll all live happily ever after

I'd give a whole lot to go back to a world before AI.
