Much the same was said about the printing press, common people with the power to publish and distribute ideas would be the end of civilisation. It wasn't, humanity has always lived fast and loose with its power for invention outstripping its ability to manage it. Comes from the selective pressures on us, find a way to survive now and worry about the long term effects later. Of course it will probably catch up with us one day.

    The printing press enhanced the spread of misinformation, as did video, and the internet after it. Hello propaganda!

    LLMs don't allow for the spread of information like the printing press, video, and the internet because they just vomit stuff out and are completely unreliable because they are wrong even when it isn't intentional.
