It usually also gets worse while it gets better.

But I take your point. This stuff will continue to advance.

But the important argument today isn't over what it can be, it's an attempt to clarify for confused people.

While the current LLMs are an important and exciting step, they're also largely just a math trick, and they are not a sign that thinking machines are almost here.

Some people are being fooled into thinking general artificial intelligence has already arrived.

If we give these unthinking LLMs human rights today, we expand orporate control over us all.

These LLMs can't yet take a useful ethical stand, and so we need to not rely on then that way, if we don't want things to go really badly.
