@gregmoore Yes, for all the utility value it may provide some (see previous comment in this thread...), it seems a high price in exchange for degrading truth finding ability for almost everyone in aggregate.

And that some seek to reduce the conversation to "What are we gonna do about this?" as if it were weather we’re discussing, is very troubling to me. These AI’s didn’t just fucking think themselves up. There is agency here. There should legal ramifications for responsibility attached.

Also, smuggled in is the premise that information is always unreliable or at least unpredictable, which of course makes it less expensive to keep many happy in their data hot tubs, blissfully unaware that there even could be other information out there...reliable, predictable, like, say, scientific discovery with its iterative error correction.

Garsh, it just goes on and on...
