At the end of the day, just like "live" tv shows like the Superbowl halftime show aren't actually live - there's a delay so that a human can intervene and bleep out words for the censors, the safeguards will have to come from outside the LLM but be imposed on it.

It's easy to just bleep bad words of a single performer. It's a lot harder if LLMs are being used what people think they will be used for; automating generation of lots of complicated text. Whether that's code or medical reports or legal documents or whatever. The volume is one challenge, but also validating their correctness is another, harder challenge.

The step between ChatGPT and SupremeCourtJusticeGPT is CustomerServiceRepresentativeGPT hooked up to the company's database. Validating that discount <= 20 and price > X and so on seems entirely doable though.

This whole thing is, honestly, the most exciting thing that has happened in years and I mean years in the technology tech space. Right at the level of internet.
