The problem with majority of “LLM critics” is that they are brain dead luddites that argue with ragebait emotion rather than rationality.

Unsurprisingly LLMs are just computers that can be useful, can be wasteful, can be life saving and can be society destroyed - it’s a tool.

Not llms, but image recognition in medical fields has gotten really good

Sure, but that’s not an LLM.

OP said:

I’m not aware of any life savings. I am aware of several cases where it has told people they should kill themselves.

Yes, LLMs appear to be much less useful in the lifesaving department. I’m sure the info they give has been helpful to someone, but the psychosis stories are insane.
