I feel the same way about “chainsaw juggling for babies” classes at daycare centres. People are so quick to jump to “that’s dangerously” or “ouch you cut off my arm” rather than engaging with the subject and suggesting ways the babies can be better taught to not decapitate their carers.
- newswasboring 4y agoThis is such a false equivalence. We are talking here about adults who want to build something cool. If we are going to define to scope of everything as "useful for everyone and 100% safe from the beginning" I think we'll get nothing done. If you think the risk here is equivalent, I really don't know what to say to you.
- almost 4y agoThat is an opinion that you're absolutely entitled to have. My own opinion is that the cats out of the bag so whatever's going to happen is going to happen wrt LLMs. But trying to shut down all criticism of a new thing just because you think it's cool is itself not cool. And those little tots sure do look cute spinning the 'saws right?
- newswasboring 4y agoI didn't try to shut down the criticism, that's not remotely what I'm saying. But if all you have to say is LLM=bad then what are you actually saying?
- almost 4y agoWell that’s a thing to say. Not what I actually said but absolutely a valid position. Everything has pros and cons and it’s absolutely valid to ask if the cons outweigh the pros. To deny that is just silly.
