The quicker LLMs and GenAI die in a ditch, the better. Also, I miss Lina Khan. The greed of billionaires and companies knows no bounds

New! We worked with the Public Interest Research Group to test a bunch of LLM-driven toys ahead of the Christmas. That sexual talking teddy bear wasn't a one-off; it turns out disturbing behavior is deeply built into these toys across the board.

Except they already have access to those libraries (by and large). Moreover, it doesn't teach them the skills required to look into things and validate it. LLMs do not know what is true, and will invent things. This is not a good thing. It's already reducing critical thinking and logic.
