LLMs are quite new, so you might honestly want to save your comment and return to it in a few years. For social media, I think you can point to directly social media with regard to the Arab Spring as well as the Rohingya genocide, and many, many mass shooting events. I'm sure there's more, that's just off the top of my head. Much like legacy media, social media is certainly not _wholly_ or necessarily even _primarily_ responsible, but I think there's little doubt it played a role. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

> how many wars did LLMs and the social media instigate? At least one already. I suspect your comment won't age well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rohingya_genocide https://www.reuters.com/article/us-myanmar-rohingya-facebook... > Marzuki Darusman, chairman of the U.N. Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on Myanmar, told reporters that social media had played a "determining role" in Myanmar. You could probably count the war in Gaza to some extent. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
