I have just read the features of iOS 18.1 Apple intelligence so called.
TLDR: typing and sending messages for you mostly like one click reply to email. Or… shifting text tone 🙄
So that confirms my fears that in the future bots will communicate with each other instead of us. Which is madness. I want to talk to a real human and not a bot that translates what the human wanted to say approximately around 75% accuracy devoid of any authenticity
If I see someone’s unfiltered written word I can infer their emotions, feelings what kind of state they are in etc. Cold bot to bot speech would truly fuck up society in unpredictable ways undermining fundaments of communication.
Especially if you notice that most communication, even familial already happens today nowadays
Future email writing: type the first three words then spam click the auto complete on your LLM-based keyboard. Only stop when the output starts to not make sense anymore.
My hope for the future relies on a study indicating that after 5 or so generations of training data tainted with AI generated information, the LLM models collapsed.
Hopefully, after enough LLMs have been fed LLM data, we will arrive in an LLM-free future.
Another possibility is LLMs will only be trained on historic data, meaning they will eventually start to sound very old-fashioned, making them easier to spot.
So kids will learn to just ‘hey siri tell my mom I am sorry and I will improve myself’.
What makes you think that kids aren’t already doing things like this? Not with Siri, but it doesn’t take much effort to get ChatGPT to write something for you.
It isn’t built-in in the very phone operating system where you just tap on generate response in the iMessage. It is always about laziness. First the privacy went away due to path of least effort even though you always had tons of privacy alternatives but they require just 10 seconds of extra effort

You can do that today with the FUTO keyboard lol. It uses a small language model for predictive text.

<this is unlikely to come true but let me hope >

Also I saw a South Park episode about this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Learning_(South_Park)
