Ah yes tools are poison, you're very intelligent.

[-] arcine@jlai.lu 6 points 1 month ago

Okay then eat an entire screwdriver.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

when you definitely know how tools work

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

They certainly know how they taste

tools are poison

Not what they said. I know it's probably been a while, but dust off that critical thinking hat for a moment.

I'm being dead serious. It seems like your ability to grasp basic logic is suffering.

Ok so then you admit that your logic there was faulty?

Something becomes a tool through usage though. So, LLMs can be a tool just as anything else when we put out mind to it.

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yes. My point is that it being a tool does not prevent it from being a poison. Your argument is flawed.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

What part of my argument is flawed, nothing I said is contrary to your statement.

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

If you don't have an issue with something being both a poison and a tool then how does your original response make sense?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 weeks ago

Plenty of tools can be dangerous when used improperly. For example, bleach is very useful for cleaning, but I would advice against drinking it.
