The AI Discourse online is frustrating especially because it feels like both boosters and haters are motivated to throw just every piece of bullshit that seems like it supports their position at the wall to see if it sticks. So when I find something that feels measured and appropriate, it's like Christmas in May.
Here's an article that discusses one specific aspect of current LLM usage in a targeted and reasonable way, and suggests an approach to mitigate the risks.

@peterb@mathstodon.xyz Those are reasonable stances. But are they compatible with boosterism? They want us to believe these are conscious, i.e. anthropomorphize them. To insist they are not conscious is my position and qualifies me as a hater.
