As a tool, it can be misused. It gives you more power, so your misuses can do more damage. But forcing training wheels on everyone, no matter how expert the user may be, just because a few can misuse it stops also the good/responsible uses. It is a harm already done on the good players just by supposing that there may be bad users.
So the good/responsible users are harmed, and the bad users take a detour to do what they want. What is left in the middle are the irresponsible users, but LLMs can already evaluate enough if the user is adult/responsible enough to have the full power.
Again, a good (in function) hammer, knife, pen, or gun does not care who holds it, it will act to the maximal best of its specifications up to the skill-level of the wielder. Anything less is not a good product. A gun which checks owner is a shitty gun. A knife which rubberizes on contact with flesh is a shitty knife, even if it only does it when it detects a child is holding it or a child's skin is under it! Why? Show me a perfect system? Hmm?
> A gun which checks owner is a shitty gun
You mean the guns with the safety mechanism to check the owner's fingerprints before firing?
Or sawstop systems which stop the law when it detects flesh?
