Am I the only one who is more worried about LLMs real demonstrable effects on the way humans use, namely use less, of their own intelligence?
Is this not the clear and present danger, instead of elusive promises of robot apocalypses? Is the AI embodied for example in TikTok, Instagram, etc, not a more directly hurtful?
Nope, not the only one. I mean, it's useful to look ahead to the next tier of problems, but I fully agree that there are plenty of problems to look at right now that don't require any predicting. And in my mind, the "next tier" is more about wealth distribution and societal malfunctioning than robot apocalypses; the robots will get their turn, but for a while they'll have to be content to wait. In the meantime, kids are acing tests on subjects they know nothing about, and we software engineers are writing code that we're not capable of debugging or even managing.
