you don't trust or untrust algorithms. like you said, they're just autocompletes. you quantify the risk and see if you have an appetite for it. any sane engineer won't just let an LLM loose, they'll build guardrails around it. If the solution involved untrusted external/human input the risk is much higher, but for a private system, there is only so much paranoia you can throw around before it turns into anthropomorphizing algorithms.
- scubbo 1y agoLeaving aside the fact that anthropomorphization is a perfectly valid discursive shorthand - yes, exactly. LLMs have an insanely-high risk profile to be granted access to anything without a human-in-the-loop. > any sane engineer won't just let an LLM loose, they'll build guardrails around it Sure seem to be plenty of insane engineers around these days. And, worse - plenty of them with good marketing teams that can convinced non-engineers that their systems are "safe" and "reliable".
