I think we often have to try things before they’re fully baked in order to make progress and unfortunately in the US and many other parts of the world, corporations bastardize these innovations, steer them in all sorts of unintended directions and push on people to drive revenue.
I agree to some degree that LLM’s have a greater potential for bad than they do good, at least for now, but there’s a lot of good in many things today that may have started out that way in the past. The internet was and, really still is, an avenue for potentially very dangerous activity, but there’s also a ton of benefit in the interconnectedness of people. Smartphones are a huge drain on humanity requiring connection to the world 24/7, but also are an incredible tool for many other applications. And LLM’s are just the beginning (obviously not the beginning, but at a mass scale) and I think will evolve and combine with other AI tech and find its way just like all the other tech before it.
Change is hard and capitalism is depressing, but there’s still a real human world out there full of feelings and opinions. Nothing is gonna stop that. It may shape it, but that has always been the case.

Thanks for responding. I don’t have time to write a proper reply (sleepy) but wanted to say bye. Thanks for chatting!
All good! Have a good night.
