An LLM is like a human’s speech center severed from the rest of their brain, including the parts responsible for consciousness, reason, and memory. I think current level LLMs on the scale of ChatGPT are equivalent in intelligence to a chicken. Chickens are smart. They’re also really dumb. It’s a specialised intelligence. LLMs are basically animals, just specialised for something completely different than all extant biological animals.
Anyway, I think it’s worth having a conversation about limiting the use of ANNs on vegan grounds.

That’s a noble sentiment, but have you met humanity? I don’t think we limit anything based on vegan grounds.
So we shouldn’t desire social change because that change hasn’t yet happened? That argument doesn’t make sense to me
It was just a cynical comment. I did not suggest what we should do. You jumped to that conclusion wholly on your own.
