Your comment is such a great distillation of what LLM's are. AI really is the most current topic for fear mongering and I'm sick of it.

There are definitely good reasons to be concerned around the ethics of AI for the future but as it currently stands AI has got a long way to go.

Something I heard a while ago about human vs artificial intelligence, think of all the things that children learn growing up, many things they begin to learn before they can even talk. If your knowledge is limited to what can be learnt through language then you will only be able to learn so much. Even still, when teaching something to a child, they only need a few goes to generally understand how to do something, current "learning" algorithms can take more than thousands of attempts to learn how to do extremely basic tasks and often do not perform the tasks as would be expected. AI is severely limited at this current time.
