Back in 2019, it was more fair to have caution around the larger GPT-2 models since robust text generation (by 2019 standards) was a complete unknown. For something like Mythos in 2026, where now the social implications of better LLMs are more understood, it's more fair to call it (EDIT: specifically, the declaration of its danger) a marketing gimmick.
It changes my whole profession on a level i couldn't even imagine how we would 'solve' software engineering.

OpenAI says its new model GPT-2 is too dangerous to release (2019)
In hindsight, they were entirely correct. The social damage caused by low cost content generation that’s hard to distinguish from human authorship is astronomical. You don’t need to entertain the more ridiculous doomsday scenarios to wish that this technology had never been created.
I don't want to stop progress just because its hard to imagine how it will transform our society. I want to see a Star Trek economy/society in my lifetime. I only life once. Btw. AI/LLM/Machine learning is the gateway technology for robotics, this will affect even more.
The concern I heard was that releasing it would start an arms race for AGI, which I think it clearly did

I certainly cannot survive much more of the AI memes generated about our so-called Commander in Chief with a fake bodybuilder mystique... you are absolutely correct, this kind of material is psychologically damaging. And a huge distraction from the genocide by the "best friend and ally" of the US. Heart wrenching and extremely damaging hasbara - just please stop, haven't you stolen and killed enough guys? This is _no…

I am having so much trouble relating to and even understanding what the anti-AI crowd's position is. It looks like a caricature to me.
