Technology doesn’t exist in a vacuum, you need the consider the possibility it will be used for evil and the effect that might result from that. Far too many people dismiss LLM risks with ‘oh, if people just stop being gullible/greedy/lazy everything will be fine’, as if that is a sensible proposition. In fact, LLMs proliferate in exactly because people are gullible, greedy and lazy and it’s easier to write a prompt than do the hard work of architecting software. It is easier to vibe code than use them with care. It is easier to tell oneself ‘I will just accept this PR blindly, but I promise I will do a better job reviewing the next’ | ||

I do consider the possibility it will be used for evil -- and then I ban evil. | ||
