I saw someone compare AI to asbestos, in that people thought it was this amazing new material and put it in everything whether it needed it or not, but then realized too late that it was incredibly harmful. Do asbestos and AI both have a place? Yes. Do they need to be in everything out there? No.

as a girl with a PhD in natural language processing and machine learning it's actually offensive to me when you say "we don't know how LLMs work so they might be conscious"
I didn't spend 10 years in mines of academia to be told ignorance is morally equal knowledge.
We know exactly how LLMs work.

This is 100% my social media. A large amount of experts in very specific areas due to hyperfixations and study. I know exactly who to turn to for most problems outside my field.
"PhD-level experts in your back pocket" is a completely nonsensical description of AI but a pretty good description of social media if you follow the right people

Dear Ms. White,
I listen to your fascinating March 7 Stanford lecture with great interest. I am a believer and Investor in crypto so hearing such an intelligent and knowledgeable counter argument was quite valuable. Typically, when I hear someone speaking in vocal fry I turned them out regardless their level of intelligence. You came right up to the edge and actually went over the edge when you started the Q&A. Valley girls and the Kardashians have made this form of speech popular. Why, I’m not exactly sure. A great example of someone who quickly comes to mind who does not use vocal fry and is a great role model is Judy Woodruff from the PBS NewsHour. You will not detect the smallest amount of vocal fry. You are obviously very smart and have a tremendous amount of wisdom to offer at such a young age. Don’t cheapen it With a questionable and demeaning vocal technique. I don’t believe you’re doing it on purpose, you don’t strike me as someone who would consciously value that speaking technique. Listen to your lecture and towards the end of some of the points you make and end of sentences you will hear what I’m observing. I want to hear more of what you have to say but at this point, I can’t get the vocal fry out of my head.
Respectfully yours,
Vladimir

Dear Mr. Belinsky,
Next time you type up a 100+ word email telling a person to change their natural speaking voice to fit your personal tastes, consider leaving it in drafts. There is a full transcript of the lecture available; perhaps you would find it more palatable to use your browser's text-to-speech feature to read it to you in a man's voice.
Respectfully yours,

Lyft and Uber are just cab companies that book through a phone. REGULATION THEM AS SUCH. Social media companies are MEDIA companies; regulate them as such. Hosting companies can be regulated as infrastructure or telecommunications. Airbnb? Hotel regulations. On and on.

Calling human creations "content" was the beginning of the end. It enabled AI people to see it as free fuel, and for people to devalue it and not appreciate the hours of work put in. I loathe the word content.

Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.
Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.
