AI is just a prediction engine, just like a tiger is just molecules.

    The argument depends on the context.

    To the ppl who think chatgpt and other LLMs will create terminator style robots, you can make the argument that LLMs are just a text prediction engine and incapable of that.

    However, you can’t use that argument to say LLMs are harmless. They are capable of other types of harm, mostly when users blindly trust what LLM’s output.

      Yes, I see that the argument depends on the context.

      Honestly, I expect some form of mass unemployment in the future coming along with mass automation.

      That doesn’t mean that every job will get automated, but a large fraction (especially office jobs) will.

      Also, please consider that it isn’t relevant “how many jobs there are”. It is relevant how well these jobs are paying. It would be very significant if AI took all of the well-paying “white collar” jobs, while humans are stuck with a lot of, but poorly paying, blue collar jobs and pink collar jobs.

      EDIT: to whom it might concern, I believe that birth rate has to go down to keep the wages up. Because the labor market is a market, and less supply (fewer workers) = higher pay.
