My problem with AI nutjobs like you is that you can think of a similar scenario with classical algorithms/technology with almost no discernible changes.

There is no way that humans fully understand the inner workings of a camera sensor, but they trust the output of a camera recording to make decisions.

The point is that you don't have to trust the output of the camera the same way you trust a colleague. You don't need to anthromorphise the camera to make use of it.

Nothing changes. There is nothing special about LLMs. There is no need to worship them or think of them as anything other than tools.

I think if you scroll my comments you will find I’m mostly negative on ai these days so it’s strange you are name calling me but it’s okay. I am trying to point out what you say, tools abstract expertise and we should accept that has always been the case so instead of seeing it as some kind of strange anthropomorphized object we should simply ask ourselves what new problems can we solve with what new tools. And in order to do that we need to build trust in those new tools.
