      /s and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

      They have greatly increased the likelyhood of those of us who read wild takes to understand they’re sarcastic, but they have spoiled society, have made doomscrolling unfulfilling, have subjected human beings to misunderstandings, have led to widespread psychological brainrotting (in the Third World actually no, the lack of social media has some perks) and have inflicted severe damage on the human ability to discern facetiousness.

      The continued development of LLMs will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human users to greater policing of “”“spicy”“” words and inflict greater damage on media literacy, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical confrontation even in “advanced” countries.
