RE: [Discussion] Frankenstein's Monster: A creature of the 19th century, or the Large Language Models of today?

I agree with @chriddi, here on both points. The AI thoughts are interesting, and it would be easier to read this if the ChatGPT part were marked as an HTML or markdown blockquote.

This phrasing is attention-getting, considering that it was written by an AI. This is not the first time I've seen ChatGPT refer to itself as part of "us" and "we".

Ultimately, it is up to us as a species to decide whether or not we are willing to take the risks associated with this new technology, and to ensure that we use it for the betterment of humanity rather than its downfall.

With regards to LLMs, I'm not sure that this is true, but it's certainly a common perception:

In both cases, the creation process was marked by a lack of consideration for the potential consequences of the creation, leading to unintended negative outcomes.

Actually, I think people have been thinking and talking about potential consequences for decades. I think this is parroting the point I made in my other reply, that people (and AIs, apparently) expect the impossible. We don't get to know the future until it happens. As much as we'd like to, we can't actually know the results until we run the experiment. And at this point, I guess the experiment is unstoppable.
