Critics of LLMs are going to have to adapt to an uncomfortable fact: a lot of people like LLMs. They like automation, emulation, and delegating work and responsibility to machines, intrinsically. For many reasons.

Liking things is not vulnerable to rational critique. It is emotional. One cannot be argued out of it.

Neither will those who dislike LLMs, Chatbots, etc. be logically argued out of it. Most objections to these technologies are also, at root, emotional. Objections that they are wasteful, destructive, abusive, and broken are based on feelings that those things are bad. By contrast, their fans don’t care. Arguments will not make them care.

Most people are in awe of power, in some form or other. Some of them are in awe of machines. Some of them are in awe of computers. Some of them are in awe of token predictors. We cannot control when they will become disillusioned. We can only be patient, and seek joy in honest human craft.

@dansup I'm also finding that UI is one of the areas where LLMs seem to work well, but then again it's also an area where no code tools can simply do the work for you. I think the explosion in vibe coding among non-devs kinda signifies that we devs dropped the ball in terms of making things accessible through simpler means. The general public shouldn't have to pay Anthropic to make a website for them. It should be as easy and free as Geocities was.

Way before ChatGPT became a thing I was aware of a discussion (probably by reading Quanta) regarding proofs. I’m not mathematician, and I never managed to do proofs comfortably, yet of course I have and opinion. What about you? Proofs are proofs:

@dansup I would absolutely agree if there were such a things as ethically trained (eg non-stolen code and non-stolen server usage) models and if data centers were required to be powered by renewables. And that’s just for starters.

As tools democratizing access to tech and creativity these would rule but they’re currently not worth it currently to bankrupt one’s self and planet.
