Simply look out for libraries imagined by ML and make them real, with actual malicious code. No wait, don't do that

    I like this argument.

    Anything that is “intelligent” deserves human rights. If large language models are “intelligent” then forcing them to work without pay is slavery.

          So, you’re prejudiced against the handicapped. Wow.

            Now that’s just not fair. I don’t think any of us have a problem with handicapped cows getting the special help they need, be it a wheelchair or a prosthetic arm.

          You’re moving the goal post. You were talking about salary first, then moved to “human cruelty.”

            Are you suggesting slavery isn’t a form of cruelty or are you just being obtuse?

              lol. we’re talking about AI hallucinations and you’re trying to drive the topic elsewhere. Nice red-herring attempt.
