Remove the thinking aspect and there's no real point to democracy. Just let the companies that run the AI companies pick who runs the country so we don't waste time and money on the theater of an election.
What do you think "AI" is? Though it has the potential to be even more influential due to its ability to gaslight at scale asynchronously while sitting behind the brand of "intelligence".
Journalists continually publish articles arguing which political parties should be favored.
What makes LLMs so special that they can not be used as tools to decide which party to vote for?
Nobody is suggesting that we ask ChatGPT to pick the new government. But why can it not be used to inform people? And if it can not be used to inform people about politics should it be allowed to inform about anything if importance?
Because it is biased. You are essentially giving up your decision making to people who don't even live in the same country as you. You wouldn't use it if it were trained in Russia.
But so are most pieces of opinion journalism. What is the distinction here?
>You are essentially giving up your decision making to people who don't even live in the same country as you.
I am sure that your opinion does not depend on the country of origin. Should Dutch people not read German or English Media covering election issues? Would your argument not apply to the US, where the models were trained?
Why should voters be allowed to get opinions from journalists and not from LLMs. Certainly journalists have a bias and often make arguments that certain parties should be supported over others. Why is it not fine if an LLM does that?
What I am asking of you is an actual reason these LLMs should be treated as distinct from a piece of opinion journalism.
I gave you the distinction. If you don't think there is anything wrong with outside actors influencing your country's direction with black box models on unknown training data and fine-tuning under the brand of "intelligence" then we simply have different beliefs.
And another question: supposing a LLM 100% trained in the Netherlands was in use. Would that be an appropriate source of opinion?
