A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I dunno.
Every history book I've ever read seems to indicate that our species tends toward using new technology for the worst purposes.
Sure, but many purposes that people are afraid that ChatGPT could be used for are already 1:1 possible with Google.
Reminds me of the 3D printed gun discussion. Sure, you can use a 3D printer to print a super crappy gun that can't build up enough pressure for the projectile to gain some actual lethal speed without exploding.
Or you could do what people have been doing for centuries and just get a pipe and some other hardware from the hardware store and build a gun manually. That's literally how guns where made for centuries. (Except that you have to replace the big box hardware store with the correct equivalent of the time.)
