The current incentive is not improving humanity.

For ai companies, its to get a model which can be better on benchmarks and vibes so that it can be sota and get higher valuation for stakeholders.

For coders, they just want the shit done. Everyone wants the easy way if his objective is to complete a project but for some it is learning and they may not choose the easy way.

Why they want to do it the easy way, mostly as someone whose cousin's and brother's are in this cs field(i am still in high school), they say that if they get x money then the company at least takes a 10x value of work from them. (Of course, it may be figuratively). One must imagine why they should be the one morally bound in case ai goes bonkers.

Also, the best not using ai would probably stop it a little but the ai world moves so fast, its unpredictable, deepseek was unpredicted. I might argue that now its a matter of us vs China in this new arms race of ai. Would that stop if you stop using it? Many people are already hating ai but has that done much to stop it? If that is, you call ai stopping at the moment.

Its paradoxical. But to be Frank, LLM was created for the reason Its excelling at. Its a technological advancement and a moral degradation.

Its already affecting supply chain tbh. And to be frank, I am still using ai to build projects which I just want to experiment with and see if it can really work without getting the domain specific knowledge. Though I also want to learn more and am curious but just don't have much time in high school.

I don't think people cared about privacy and I don't think people would care about it now. And its the same as not using some big social media giant, you can't escape it. The tech giants also made it easier but less private. People chose the easier part and they would still choose the easy part ie llm. So I guess the future is bleak eh? Well the present isn't that great either. Time to just enjoy life while the world burns by the regret of its past actions for 1% shareholder profit. (For shareholders, it was all worth it though, am I right?)
