The whole thing is such idiotic masturbation by the exact people who have been stealing, selling and profiting off our data. Now they talk like they created something new when it’s just a super energy intensive computer program.

I destroy old toys and make very gory horror art for fun, they’re not alive and they don’t feel it, I’m not a child and I understand this. LLMs are exactly the same, ones and zeros that feel nothing and aren’t people, we should vehemently avoid anthropomorphizing them.

Man, anthropomorphizing these computer programs is so fucking weird to me. Can’t they just tell the truth? The cost of the amount of energy required to do this exceeds the profits we gain from your personal data.
