Computers Can't Make Decisions, So Stop Blaming LLMs
Computers Cannot Make Decisions
This wiki entry argues that blaming an LLM for an outcome is decision laundering, since computer programs cannot make decisions. The author points out that OpenAI and Anthropic could stop their models from doing what they are doing, but are actively choosing not to. This behavior goes unpunished and unlegislated because doing so would be bad for the economy. The author questions how people can continue to allow these companies into their lives, noting that subscriptions fund this behavior.
Any and all attempts to blame an LLM for an outcome is decision laundering.
