> Especially from our community, I’m disappointed to see this amount of blind trust and willful ignorance and lack of real engineering discipline in treating LLMs as anywhere near trustworthy. I'm not disappointed anymore, because I've lowered my expectations for software engineers and the tech community in general. VC-adjacent hype and seeing the world through sci-fi fantasies trumps "engineering discipline" every time, at least in its discourse (you've got both for LLMs). There's a lot of unacknowledged ignorance of areas outside the tech bubble, and also a lot of contempt for it. Also, there's a pathological inability to think through to consequences to temper a compulsion to mindlessly "build the next thing," (especially acute with AGI, which for our sake I hope is infeasible or at least impractical). I really strongly believe someone needs to "take the keys away" from the tech community. And I say that as a member of it. > LLMs != AGI. Hot take, even if we did have AGI, it shouldn’t be given access / free rein over code and computing systems. I trust humans, with all our flaws, because we are limited in our time and energy, and speed. Also, more importantly, we are humans. It's literally some of the scariest, most hopeless things to imagine our world being dominated by something else, especially something else that unreachably exceeds our capabilities (I'd count a billionaire controlling an army of AGI drones to be essentially inhuman).
