A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

There's a reason why in my comment i talked about LLMs as bad while saying AI in general has it's uses. The reason being this post being about LLMs.
I know very well that specialized AI has a lot of uses in medical science and other fields but that's not really what got hit with all the hype, is it? The hype is managers saw a language model give seemingly better answers to questions than John Rando from 2 blocks down the road so they're now looking to cut out all the already low paid workers and spoiler alert we will not land in a society where the general public profits from not having work. It will be the same owners of capital profiting as per usual.
If we do nothing, sure. I'm suggesting, like the article, that we do something.
The only sentiment I took issue with was the poster above who suggested that somehow the solution would be to delete/destroy illegally trained networks. I'm just saying that's not practical nor progressive. AI is here to stay, we just need to create legislature that ensures it works for us, especially when it couldn't have been built without us.
