Why did you ruin it with the 'AI scary :,(' propaganda bs

I don't believe that AI is scary.
At least, it's no more scary than a hammer.
It's a tool.

But I did want to point out that the argument that AI is "just a text prediction engine" is ridiculous.

The argument depends on the context.

To the ppl who think chatgpt and other LLMs will create terminator style robots, you can make the argument that LLMs are just a text prediction engine and incapable of that.

However, you can't use that argument to say LLMs are harmless. They are capable of other types of harm, mostly when users blindly trust what LLM's output.
