This makes me wonder how often online discussions blow up because of an autoimmune context collapse of sorts. Half are acting out to prevent a possible recurrence of community abuse while the other half feels attacked for no reason, not knowing the way they talk sounds just like an abuser

It’s analogous to the US’s old argument for asbestos: that asbestosis and mesothelioma were effectively consequences of irresponsible use or “deployment” But you simply can’t get the honestly near-miraculous chemical properties of lead or asbestos without the poisoning, lung scarring, and cancers

And, since we can’t tell the grifters from the sincere-but-foolish, the only “responsible” thing we can do react to all statements along these lines with scepticism

IOW: some of the people currently saying that the main problem with “AI” today is irresponsible deployment—managers, executives, and investors being foolish—are saying so in order to sell you a “responsible” deployment of LLMs at a later date not because they are genuinely concerned about the tech

For example, a statistical text model doesn’t give you “access” to a paper. It gives you a lossy, part-fictional approximation of a paper, which is a very, VERY different thing
