Hey if you think chat gpt can break you (or has any agency at all), I have a bridge to sell you.
Capitalism and lack of social structure broke them first, chatGPT is just the thing that they imprinted on in response.
ChatGPT and the others have absolutely broken people, not because it has agency, but because in our dystopia of social media and (Mis)information overload, many just need the slightest push, and LLMs are perfect for taking those close to the edge off of it.
I see LLM use as potentially as a toxic to the mind is as something like nicotine is to the body. It's not Skynet meaning to harm or help us, it's an invention that takes our written thoughts and blasts back a disturbing meta reflection/echo/output of a humanity's average response to it. We don't seem to care how that will effect us psychologically when there's profit to be made.
But there are already plenty of cases of murders and suicides with these as factors.
If someone sells you arsenic and tells you to eat it. The arsenic didn't kill you, the person who sold it to you did.
Blaming AI is the company's way of making sure you'll keep looking at the fucking hammer instead of at the hand weilding it.
Completely fair.
For the record I am a socialist who thinks all billionaires and most to all centimillionaires are as mentally diseased as serial killers and far more effectively destructive to society than any serial killer that has ever walked the earth, and they all belong in mental health facilities for everyone else's safety to protect us from their sociopathic avarice disease.
Eliza could break people. Something doesn't need agency to be psychologically manipulative and damaging.
Is it up for sale again?! I missed out the last time!
