As if ads wasn’t AI training. Ranking recommendations and coefficients rely on the same mechanisms.

It’s really hard to make the case here that there is anything new happening here.

Just the chickens of decades of not engaging with the topic coming home to roost.

LLMs have more potential for weaponising personal information against us. They will comply with anything requested in the prompt.

They didn't say that. They just said this has more potential than that, which does seem right.

Doesn't follow from

LLMs are impressive in how they are able to produce plausible sentences, but they don't actually bring any new data correlating or collecting capabilities to the table.
