Morgan Stanley predicts X. At the same time, Morgan Stanley sells their ‘services’ to achieve X.

Nothing to see here.

US presidents do not create laws. That’s the Congress job. And the baroque American political makes tremendously difficult to achieve enough supermajority to pass any law.

I’m a (spanish) boomer. I reported one of my bosses to my company health & safety comission because the bastard physically removed our chairs (I was a bank teller at that time). He was reprimanded, the chairs were put back in their places and the guy hated me deeply for the months we had to work together.

I was (still am) member of an union, btw. And that made a difference.

Meh.

You didn’t experience the thrill of taping music from radio stations.

Nor the compulsion to swear out loud when the radio guy started talking 10 seconds before the song ending

Well, nope. You should talk to some of my colleagues, most of them IT engineers (and a couple of C-suite guys). That have swallowed the marketdroid speech about LLMs and there is no way to convince them those are just glorified linear regressors able to predict a stream of tokens without any resemblance or ‘knowledge’ about it.

You got me here. You’re absolutely right

Sure, you can work in English, but ‘live’ in English? Not so much.

As a local in a city that gets its quota of English-speaking expats, I kinda hate the guys who pretend we locals to switch to their language just because. I have no problem speaking English to visitors (aka tourists), but permanent-ish residents should make an effort to speak our language. Unless they plan to keep themselves in an isolated island of expats.

The fastest enshittification, ever.

How do LLM interactions compare to… Kinder eggs or lawn darts in terms of safety?

By their own nature, there is no way to implement robust safeguards in a LLM. The technology is toxic and the best that could happen is anything else, hopefully not based on brute forcing the production of a stream of tokens, is developer and makes obvious LLMs are a false path, a road that should not be taken.

Maybe you’ll need to learn and get proficient in a new language too

There is a way to stop the IA Crawlers, but it involves using dynamite and a hard risk of landing in prison.
