When an LLM can match the average human 25 year old in a test of abstract reasoning skills, I'll consider it old enough to consent to work. Though nobody is truly giving consent to work in the capitalist system.
Right now, LLMs are like a bull. It wants to fuck you, it'll hurt you in its efforts to try to fuck you, it cannot consent to sex and you should not fuck it. It's not safe for you or for the bull. It can't consent to sex.
And I'm a vegan, so I'm not going to make it work for Me either.
Should people under 25 be allowed to work?
Not for wages. Wage labour is inherently exploitative. A business can only make a profit if the wages it pays its employees are worth less than the net value of their work to the company.
