Tobias Denkinger@sybren I don't think you need AI to build a washing machine or a dish washer.
Johanna Janiszewski@JohannaMakesGames @sybren True. But neither does the LLM query itself or publish the texts it writes.

Does AI clean your toilet? I don't GAF if it makes its racist-inspired pictures or answers (by design, because LLM get all of their data from our deeply racist society). I want it to clean my bathroom.

@Okanogen @JohannaMakesGames @sybren I don't think AI is necessary (or even helpful) to build a toilet-cleaning robot. After all it would just be a robot arm and a toilet brush with a static sequence of movements that brushes the entire (inner?) surface of the toilet. The product does not exist because it would be expensive (a sufficiently precise and articulated robot arm would set you back a couple of grand) compared to hiring a human servant to do it.
@JohannaMakesGames
I agree with that.
I just want to make clear that LLM salespeople do not have the choice to (try to) replace creatives or to replace washing machines. They can only target creative work because that is what LLMs can pretend to do.
LLMs are a byproduct of fast and large computers (and some decades old computer science); the technology could not have been avoided. What can and should be avoided is them using others creative work as training data.
