    everything will have llms

    everything will be able to talk to anything else, for real this time

    it will be like the internet of things only some asshole will call it "intelligence of things"

    again, there will be no S for Security in this new IoT

    your thermostat will one day start fucking with you. when you run a diagnostic llm on it, it turns out it's keeping around 5 different viral copies of personality files around, that were left behind by llm botnets/openclaw-like memetic replicators/your grandpa leaving behind easter eggs before his death.

    the future will be pretty evenly distributed, and full of weird shit

      Suddenly the ban on computer networks in Battlestar Galactica doesn't seem so far fetched! We're not that far off having enough distributed compute for LLM viruses to install corrupted LLMs everywhere and then start attacking everything within reach.
