The strongest argument against the production and uptake of LLMs is that we don’t have the social, cultural, and political context in which they can be used to their most effective ends, but rather one in which they will likely be used to further break necessary things that were already creaking.

damn larry ellison is busted as hell

if you spend more than 5 minutes in a classroom in 2025 and don't come out of it motivated to lookup the home addresses of the people who allowed the distribution of ipads/chromebooks to children "for their education", I do not trust you

I think a big part of what makes the LLM discourse feel so insane is the insight that using AI effectively requires a level of humility and carefulness that is completely opposite to the way it was developed, the way it is being marketed, and the way the entire tech industry normally operates.
