  • Being slightly wrong in a translation is bad, for sure, but doesn’t (often) invent new facts. I still would not trust it for a legal document, personally.

    I did actually originally ask what your point was in the comment I wrote, but I couldn’t phrase it in a way that didn’t feel hostile - which I hope I’m not coming across as. I just couldn’t quite grasp the point you were trying to make, and I think it’s because we disagree on a fundamental level here.

    Yes if they’re signing a contract, absolutely get a lawyer if you don’t understand what you’re signing, but occasionally you just need to look up a law or accept a eula, and it would be nice to be able to have some help reading it, even if it’s from an imperfect tool.

    I agree with the first part about signing a contract, but totally disagree with the second. If I need to look up a law, or anything at all, I would never run it through a machine that regularly invents “facts” from whole cloth, or misinterprets, while agreeing and confidently backing any implications I give it. LLMs are inherently untrustworthy, in my opinion, partly because they’re programmed to be “yes-men” who engage the user constantly in order to sell them a service, and partly because they don’t “know” anything - they just essentially scrape the web and then uncritically mash whatever they find together and return it in convincing natural language.

    I think they are dangerous to engage with at any level.









  • Honestly, may as well be. I wish there was some way to have an internet that wasn’t bots, or subject to advertising and marketing creeps, but that’s just not gonna happen outside of like… I don’t know. I don’t even know where the infrastructure would begin for humans to separate themselves online and build an actual community. It would be tough. It’s a shame, really. This could have been so good.




  • Maybe the situation here is different, but in the video game industry when boycotts happen due to scummy business practices and then get instantly forgiven, those companies in question usually figure out a new way to implement those scummy practices that flies under the radar. Or they just do it again, at a better time.

    I can’t help but feel Disney will now work out a new way to appease the fascist regime, but without openly annoying supporters like this. Maybe those private “thoughtful conversations” they had with Kimmel contained some directives. Maybe we’ll get a more neutered show now. Appeasing the regime is the problem really.
