It is Daniel Davies who popularized the idea that these LLMs are an excellent "accountability sink" (@pluralistic put it on my radar). Plausible deniability. Shroedinger's search engine, where things are correct and hallucinations at the same time. Computer said no.
Where (poor) AI models were previously limited to certain industries, they are now injected in every application possible (i.e. blowing up that potential legal surface).
Software ate the world once, LLMs will do it once more.
