More and more, generative models are looking like productivity tobacco. Promoted by biased research, it’s addictive, harmful, and the little benefit it has (nicotine is a somewhat effective ADHD drug, for example) cannot outweigh the fact that it’s hurting us all, directly and indirectly.
This shit is already turning out to be one of the most harmful tech innovations of the 21st century. It needs to be regulated at least as much as tobacco, if not banned outright from most economic spheres

The best analogy I have heard of is;
"its the asbestos of the technology world, we will be removing and remediating it for generations to come."
#AI #technology
#democracy is more than voting! we-the-people need to control what #bigCorp does.
But, unfortunately I don’t see that happening. If we’re lucky, a bubble pop will clear it out of education and the economy, but if we’re unlucky, governments in charge will use public funds to try and rebuild after LLMs with more LLMs, baking this shit into the foundation of our economy for a generation
