But the interaction is different. I have a simple example, would you be upset if you see some people beat up a chair? Probably not, but if you see people beat up something that moves, talks and behaves like a person or an animal you might get upset. Both are just things, but the interaction is still different. So we should teach our kids to be kind in interactions with live line things so that they behave properly when interacting with people. That's at least how I see it 🤷♂️
I do. Breaking something just because you're upset is counter-productive and just creates waste, so it frustrates me.
I also think being polite to an LLM is stupid and wasteful. Just be direct about what you need a response to and move on. Don't be rude (that's also counter-productive), just be direct. For example, "What's the capital of Bulgaria?" instead of, "If you could be so kind, could you look up the capital of Bulgaria for me please? Thank you!" Using a tool efficiently is a way of showing it some level of respect.
Tools are tools. Use and maintain them properly, and then move on to the next task.
I see people beat up their things all the time without getting upset
I don't really care when someone smashes the door closed of their car
or smashes their keyboard in frustration or tosses a pen that doesn't work right
Perhaps you should feel concern for that person, because they're resorting to violence to cope with their feelings of frustration. We've all done it and in my own experience, I don't think I've ever come back to my senses feeling satisfaction that I had lost control. I usually feel some shame for the destruction I caused.
