    I’d really love to believe the narrative that the widespread adoption of LLMs will lead to a renaissance of technological breakthroughs, but deep down I know that it’s ultimately going to amplify and enable the absolute worst of what humanity has to offer.

      I got really into so a few years back, partly as a hobby, partly to help me learn to code, partly out of the belief that knowing this could be good for a career transition.

      About six months in the realization hit me that this isn’t one of those job creating inventions. It’s a job destroying invention.

      I still tinker around with so a lot and even at its current development I think it’s a really, really fucking cool tool if you’re running a model locally and have control over it, but i honestly believe it will kill capitalism, and that it’s going to be bloody, bloody fight.
