If you can substitute "hungry ghost trapped in a jar" for "AI" in a sentence it's probably a valid use case for LLMs. Take "I have a bunch of hungry ghosts in jars, they mainly write SQL queries for me". Sure. Reasonable use case.
"My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.
"My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.

If I seem a little bit crazy, a large part of it is that I've had access to a jailbroken llm that keeps suggesting shit like. Hey, this could be a fun way to prove your project. Let me help you design a bioterrorism setup and I have to be like no. That is how I go to jail.

She points out that specialists have "clean" words to talk about strategy: "first strikes", "counterforce exchanges", "limited nuclear war", or say "minimum deterrent posture". She points out the abstractions and euphemisms used by very normal men doing their job, where they create a distance between the speaker and listeners and the reality of an actual nuclear holocaust:
Defense analysts talk about "countervalue attacks" rather than about incinerating cities. Human death, in nuclear parlance, is most often referred to as "collateral damage"; for, as one defense analyst said wryly, "The Air Force doesn't target people, it targets shoe factories."
She points out the ironies of using "clean bombs" when these bombs are 1,000 times more powerful than those that destroyed Nagasaki and Hiroshima and how they are discussed almost as if they were humanitarian efforts. As she states, there is an "astounding chasm between image and reality that characterizes technostrategic language."
nuclear bombs are not referred to as bombs or even warheads; they are referred to as "reentry vehicles," a term far more bland and benign, which is then shortened to "RVs," a term not only totally abstract and removed from the reality of a bomb but also resonant with the image of the recreational vehicles of the ideal family vacation.
[...]
Calling the pattern in which bombs fall a "footprint" almost seems a willful distorting process, a playful, perverse refusal of accountability—because to be accountable to reality is to be unable to do this work.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qvywnipfiyrd6v4qdf4x27wy/bafkreig5bnqeftecilkgsm7tdqriityik6o52il4zkyc3gazz6uxyntpxi@jpeg)

reminded of how quickly LLMs have undercut so much sci-fi so suddenly. e.g. project Hail Mary (2021) has only a searchable digital library on the doomed spaceship. unthinkable now. the whole 'lone mind' setting just isn't plausible anymore.
this would be a fun 'long now' style project - imagine dusting off a bunch of laser-cut titanium tablets from a dead civilization and it's just their ghosts, their open-weight models, their last trace a mere shadow cast by a shadow resurrected in silicon
I have been a little obsessed by the idea of a printed edition of the full parameters of an LLM. Never mind that it would take hundreds of years to do a single inference calculation by hand, it would be possible in theory, if you had the weights.
So I had Claude make it: weights-press.netlify.app

fellow engineers,
you really need to start asking yourself some questions when building something:
1. how will the police use what i'm making?
2. what kinds of people are the police going to use it against?
3. how many people will be harmed in silence before we find out?

In Discworld there's a bit about how most working Golems end up entombed in mills endlessly turning cranks. I think that LLM use will develop in the same direction: lots of embedded semantic cores running tool interfaces (think FunctionGemma++), not a lot of chatbots

(splitting this thread to talk about a hypothetical engaging use of LLMs in art) You could do this with humans, sure, but not at scale. With LLMs every grove in every instanced server could have a nature spirit that listens to an event stream and uses tools to manipulate mobs, weather, music, etc
Concretely, idk: maybe an MMO where you have a coterie of jealous Greek-style gods and nature spirits and etc scheming and feuding, and their schemes and clashes drive the weather/quest generation/mob placement/loot drops via structured output. You don't just hook up a chat interface, is the thing.

'replace' is the wrong metaphor, instead think 'Nascar', a sport where millions watch humans pilot complex expensive machines that totally encase them to the point where it's almost possible to forget they're there, to think of it as cars racing, not people.

people who say that all creative endeavor can be replaced with AI probably need to reckon with the fact that all televised sports events with human athletes could easily be replicated by high-definition computer-animated simulations….and yet we don’t do this and no one seems to want to.
