I don’t know why I get annoyed when LLM’s and their output are casually referred to as “he/she”, particularly by non-techies, but I do. There’s something about personifying an LLM that seems incorrect. Perhaps it’s a fear being stoked that increasingly, people might actually be thinking of LLM’s as living beings.
- laszlokorte 6mo agoIsn't the line you quoted about asking a real person co-worker?
- genidoi 6mo agoOh it is yeah.
- daemonologist 6mo agoI'm pretty sure they're referring to their coworker as "he," not an LLM.
