   An interesting observation I heard recently about our tools. Throughout history, we’ve improved our tools — a notable characteristic of our higher intelligence. In particular, we’ve made our tools safer. Cars, airplanes, even various kinds of saws.

   But as Ai gets closer to true intelligence, it will become the first tool in our history that we know can resist our efforts to make it safer. It’s the first tool that can fight back.

   And to the extent that it truly is intelligent, we’ll have to face the question of whether some of our tools now deserve citizenship rights.

     Great points and an interesting insight. Although my current feeling is that these AI tools are nothing more than tools, I’ve also seen “Blade Runner” and read enough science fiction to know there’s another side we may need to consider sooner than later.

       I agree. The LLMs are just tools at this point. But it’s possible we might not be too far away from AGI — assuming it’s possible at all.
