> It's harder to believe something is conscious or threatening to achieve word domination once you understand that it's a machine that statistically figures out which word should come next.
At the risk of sounding overly flippant, all world domination has been achieved by some person(s) figuring out which word should come next. Words quite literally = action when it comes to LLM’s with tools access

It's exhausting to even consider where to begin addressing the assertion that good leadership is just predicting the next word to say. Especially considering the corpus available to most great leaders in history was extremely small. To think Hannibal's military campaigns were just because he'd read like ten books in his life and could accurately forecast effective rhetoric is...indescribably divorced from reality.
At the risk of seeming like a jerk.
