Safety in the context of LLMs means “avoiding bad media coverage or reputation damage for the parent company”

It has only a tangential relationship with end user safety.

If some of these companies are successful the way they imagine, most of their end users will be unemployed. When they talk about safety, it’s the companies safety they’re referring to.

Investor safety. It's amazing that people in hn threads still think the end-user is the customer. No. The investor is the customer, and the problem being solved for that curtomer is always how to enrich them.

How can the investor be the customer? Where does the revenue come from?

I understand “if you aren’t paying for a product you are the product” but I’m not convinced it applies here.
