“The LLM flood is effectively attacking existing feedback and control mechanisms without any attempt to establish appropriate replacements.”

I think these are problems to be worked on and they are being worked on. The work just looks boring and will not make any newsfeeds anytime soon. Our systems are changing and adapting as we speak.

See my other comments as to why that sentiment is the most dangerous sentiment. It’s easy to point to the problem of oligarch’s or clearly labellable “bad actors” and incompetence.

But neighbors agitating to block housing, unions blocking productivity enhancing technologies? Much more difficult to treat these as a “problem” as they are just a mass of historically disenfranchised people protecting their interests. But they are doing wide damage, and that same sentiment is now coming to software developers.
