The clear intent is to stop allowing regular people to be able to compute...anything. Instead, you'll be given a screen that only connects to $LLM_SERVER and the only interface will be voice/text in which you ask it to do things. It then does those things non-deterministically, and slower than they would be done right now. But at least you won't have control over how it works!
Weather or not the intent is as nefarious as you suggest, that type of UI is going to be a boon for a lot of people. Most people on the planet are incredibly computer illiterate.
I'm not sure that making the computers easier to use for "most people" has had a net positive effect on society. If an ability requires effort and discipline to attain, perhaps fewer people would take it for granted and care more about its quality.
No, I hate that idea. Saying "only those who have earned it through effort and discipline should be allowed to do X" goes against how I want most of the world to work.
Let's keep that kind of regulation to pursuits like flying helicopters, not using computers.
This is almost a willful misinterpretation of what I said. I didn't say it should be regulated or illegal. I just expressed a thought that perhaps we shouldn't reorient everything around making things easy for the laziest among us.
Fair enough. I have a bit of a trigger finger reaction to anything that hints at suggesting that regular people shouldn't be trusted to use this stuff.
Imagine what they could achieve with a non-deterministic computer that requires extremely detailed requests and weird language tricks to be convinced to do what you want!
