Raw LLM Responses

I’ve been into IT since the early 80’s as a teen - been an IT professional now for over 30 years. I’ve read about AI being “just around the corner” since forever. I never really gave it much credence - there was always way too much hype that never panned out. But the advances these past few years have had me thinking this could finally be “the corner” and I’m pretty much convinced that the good will not outweigh the bad of this technology. The huge changes may come far quicker than most people realise too - we’re talking years not decades. I’m not a Luddite, I love tech, but I’ve seen how squeezing every last penny of profit is prioritised above all other considerations in the companies I’ve worked for, without much regard to social consequences of the decisions the management make. And that is in Scandinavia - I can imagine how, in less socially constrained countries, AI will devastate job markets. And then there’re the other nefarious things that it can be used for, not least of which is controlling and manipulating populations. So, nope, not a fan, and I hope sensible governments will get in on the ground floor and regulate the shit out of AI.
