+100. Just enforcing basic product liability is a foundational step. Of course, we have a regime in the USA hell bent on eliminating the entire concept of corporate responsibility, so liability is trending towards a ever lower bar.

@emilymbender @timnitGebru Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Damn it after reading this my brain did a bit of free association and now 99 red balloons is stuck in my head since we've basically turbocharged that scenario.

@emilymbender As in physics, it's a secondary position of a prime driving force - and this is obviously a byproduct of 'unbridled' Capitalism, which knows no such thing as 'too much'.

So the inevitable feedbacks - regardless of well-planned sleight of hand by the wealthiest Tech Bros - further propagate the wealthiest, and further bury the increasingly poorer.

Mass extinction events are rife with these 'vacuous middle' patterns, aligning with similar asymmetry.

Great debunking here ☝️

"In fact, today’s LLMs and the chatbots they power are not poorly understood, nor are they powerful in the sense of being effective tools for this use case. They are systems for generating plausible looking text, built out of enormous, haphazardly collected datasets and then “fine-tuned” (that is, further trained) to be especially appealing to their intended users."

We are definitely in a technology "snake oil" phase.
