Do Bluey and Peppa Pig produce convincing human-like responses to virtually any human-generated input directed towards them?
If so, then uhh yeah we should definitely regulate that shit

If not now, then soon, yes. I'll bet money there's a toy manufacturer somewhere working out how to hook a Bluey doll up to an LLM to make it responsive.
I'm not completely clear on what we're afraid of here, though. We routinely project human-like characteristics onto non-human things for our children. We don't think this is harmful. Why are we worried about children projecting human characteristics onto an LLM?
