The real danger of AI

Notes on large language models, their capabilities, and their consequences.

If LLM providers can read every query, the obvious defence is to stop sending them meaning: transform the query into something else, get the answer, transform it back. Call it semantic homomorphism — anonymization is its simplest form.
NVIDIA came out with an initiative to back open weight models, and OpenAI, xAI and Google lined up behind it — against Anthropic's push for safety regulation. What reads as a safety debate is also a fight over who gets to stay at the top.
Your LLM provider knows who you are and sees every query, response, and file you upload. That turns Big Brother from a conspiracy theory into working reality, and we're missing the security controls to push back.
