At worst, this would only be temporary. Yes, it will cause hardship, but once it trickles down to regular companies, that an LLM is a word predictor, workers will be back. Seems Andrew Yang has never used an LLM to the lengths we do as software developers.
The thing we have to worry about is what's after the LLM.
- danielbln 8mo agoI don't understand why "it's just predicting words, bro" is still seen as a valuable argument. A LOT has to happen to accurately predict the next word(s) for any given topic. If that supposed to be a dismissal, it's not a good one.
- dham 8mo agoBecause people think it's "intelligent" because it's manipulating words and you get people like Andrew Yang and Elon Musk getting one-shotted by it. Yes, it can solve a lot of things, but an LLM isn't going to put everyone out of work, the thing after the LLM will.
- signatoremo 8mo agoYou sound exactly like Andrew Yang, the one you are criticizing, with confident sounding predictions but no substances.
- dandellion 8mo agoThe burden of proof lies on the side making claims about what AI will do, not the ones denying it.
