Rich Hickey:
LLMs are not tools […] LLMs are automation.
You don’t direct the action of an LLM – you make requests and it acts on its own, without your energy or continuous direction
You have traded working with the world to working for a capricious robot.
Tools don’t get “misaligned”, they don’t “go rogue”, they don’t “escape containment”, “conspire” etc.
I mean, on that last point, that’s not entirely true. Lawnmowers and vehicles go rogue all the time.
