It is very scary because the "tech-bros" in the movie pretty much mimic the actions of the real life ones.
If I told you many 14 year olds were making very similar offensive jokes at lunch in high school, would you support adding microphones throughout schools to track and catch them?
A picture is worth a thousand words. Me saying your mom is so fat that _______ in the lunchroom is different than me saying your mom is so fat in cinematic video format that can go locally viral (your whole school). This is the first time in my life I'm going to say this is not a history is echoing situation. This is a we have entirely gone to the next level, forget what you think you know.
Google wouldn't even need a fingerprint, they could just look up from their logs who generated the video.
LLMs don't think, and also have no race. So I have a hard time saying they can racist, per se. But they can absolutely produce racist and discriminatory material. Especially if their training corpus contains racist and discriminatory material (which it absolutely does.)
I do think it's important to distinguish between photoshop, which is largely built from feature implementation ("The paint bucket behaves like this", etc.), and LLMs which are predictive engines that try to predict the right set of words to say based on their understanding of human media. The input is not some thoughtful set of PMs and engineers, it's "read all this, figure out the patterns". If "all this" contains racist material, the LLM will sometimes repeat it.
