@nyhan So, I have been slowly and reluctantly coming to the conclusion that LLMs are the One Ring:
• They are seductive by appealing to a person's best nature
• By convincing the user that what they most ardently desire is almost within their grasp and they are right and good to want it and deserving of having it, they slowly turn the user into Gollum
• They are probably feeding everything the user whispers to it right on to the evil guy on the back end of a Palantir
