To me, it's empathetic and caring. Which the LLMs will never be, unless you give money to OpenAI. Robots won't go get food for your sick, dying friend.

Exactly. Artistic and aesthetic values are distinct concepts. That Mona Lisa replica in your living room has the same aesthetic value than the original, as it is a perfect copy, but vastly inferior artistic value. Art is defined by context.

Taking into account the output usually has the structure of being an expert output (probably because of its correctness language-wise and from a formal standpoint), I propose "bullshitting".

LLMs are a good tool for certain purposes and that's it. Unfortunately, the vendors are obviously interested in inflating their stated capabilities to get the most returns on investment ...

Excuse me? Of course you can do a lot of things. Talk to your neigbor, share gov't f-ups on social media, learn to argue for democracy and against common MAGA narratives, join protests, donate to good causes, make your political prefer

I think the problem are not group chats, but algorithms optimizing for engagement, and therefore for outrage. Think of the facebook feed.

I think the EU should flex their regulatory muscle and forbid algorithmic feeds on by default unless the networks break european society as the US is broken.

I fear the situation either ends badly or in a bloodshed. They aren't respecting the courts, so assuming they will accept defeat in elections is naive.

Generate lots (LOTS!) of bad, insecure or wrong code and link it somewhere on your page (see https://www.emergent-misalignment.com/ , Ideally, make your local LLaMa generate more examples like those in the linked site)
