If you’re implying that the LLM companies are trying to train their models to make malicious tool calls so they can collect a few more tokens on the review, then I don’t know what to say. I guess threads like this are just a breeding ground

If a company advertised an LLM as perfectly safe and then it caused some damage, there would be a case against the company. Have you used LLM tooling? It comes with warnings and explains that the user accepts the risk. Different levels of w

There’s more to labor than hours worked. Sitting at a computer for 8 hours is a different load than landscaping for 8 hours in the middle of summer. Number of hours worked has actually been trending down for a very long time.
