I’d like to reiterate what I said a while back: integrating LLM-based tools into all corporate and personal workflows is outright dangerous. Even when run locally, most LLMs in use are trained and tuned by corporations that are now deeply in bed with a lawless authoritarian takeover of the US
People who are removing all references to minorities, women, and equality from your public spheres will not hesitate to ask corporations to tune centrally-controlled LLMs to censor the same from your work

“But I’d notice if the LLM started censoring my work!”
Really? Did you notice this? https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/72603
The point of cognitive automation is NOT to enhance thinking. The point of it is to avoid thinking in the first place. That’s the job it does. You won’t notice when the censorship kicks in

@RandamuMaki @baldur Don't use either.

@baldur Easy solutions:
1) Don't use LLMs.
2) Don't use Github when Gitlab exists.
People don't want to think or work for themselves anymore. :/

@fred Regardless which year it is from, it's an example of bias that most people probably didn't notice, and a direct answer to "I’d notice if the LLM started censoring".

@baldur
The original post was in octobre 2023. It seems that it's not immediately related with the recent US actuality.

@baldur And that’s not the worst thing. These ineffably slappable tech bros defending even something like this is. Those fuckers get away with shit like this because of these fuckers.

It's already happening.
Musk famously fucks with #Grok sending it into tirades abou South African Whites extinction.
And military is de-wokifying LLMs
What's worse than a murderbot?
A dewokified murderbot!
