I genuinely don’t get how tech folks can one moment be wringing their hands about the effects of “AI” on education, the insecurity of “prompting”, and job losses and then the next be writing about the best way to integrate an LLM into your workflow or SaaS without even a hint of cognitive dissonance
Like, what sort of flat-minded disassociation do you need to be suffering from to so completely avoid dissonance or at least a cursory double bind? WTF?
@baldur I suspect it's going to be very similar reasoning to the "capitalism is fine, we just need to regulate it" crowd - unwillingness to recognize that the ideology is fundamentally hostile to regulation or responsible application, and preferring to believe that the torment nexus can be contained if they draw the boundaries of what's acceptable *just* right.
@baldur (Usually motivated by - at least the perception of - some personal benefit they are getting from the existence of said ideology and systems)
