Users can use tools how they want. However, some of those uses are hazards. If I am trying to scare birds away from my house with fireworks and burn my neighbors' house down, that's kind of a problem for me. If these fireworks are marketed as practical bird repellent, that's a problem for me and the manufacturer. I'm not sure if it's official marketing or just breathless hype men or an astroturf campaign. | ||

As arguments go, this is not bad, as we tend to have some expectations about 'truth in advertising' ( however watered-down it may be at this point ). Still, I am not sure I ever saw openAI, Claude or other providers claim something akin to: - it will find you a new mate - it will improve your sex life - it will pay your taxes - it will accurately diagnose you That is, unless I somehow missed some targeted advertising material. If it helps, I am somewhere in the middle myself. I use llms ( both at work and privately ). Where I might slightly deviate from the norm is that I use both unpaid versions ( gemini ) and paid ones ( chatgpt ) apart from my local inference machine. I still think there is more value in letting people touch the hot stove. It is the only way to learn. | ||
