I think LLMs are fairly impressive, ethical issues aside, however I have some fears given how they're being rolled out. In the not too distant future (facebook could probably turn this on in a week) I see a world where all communications between people are run through the models before being sent. Personal messages and posts will be sanitized and corporatized completely removing any personality or individuality from the sender.

On the flip side, messages and posts could be tuned to maximize "engagement" with the platform, which has worked out well so far.

For the day job, I occasionally have to use outlook, and even the autocorrect sentence completing thing modifies the way I write things so I don't get an underline under my sentences. It's a nudge, but one that happens dozens of times a day and must be modifying the way I express myself.

In the further future, it may get to the point where communicating directly with someone without the LLM middleman may have the same social and legal stigma that using tor or encrypted chat/email apps.

The vast majority of online communication passes through these 3rd parties that all seem to be trying to ram this stuff down our throats.

It's a higher tech version of newspeak. Controversial ideas may be difficult to even express.

It'll obliterate thought. Instead of writing for an audience or a friend, you'll subconsciously adapt your writing so that the machine will produce the output you want. Even if you resist, you'll be nudged along.

That'd be horrifying enough, but these models will be given rules by humans. Humans with agendas.
