    LLMs probably have applications for dictators. Instead of solely relying on their “keys of power” and a huge hierarchy filtering what the dictator knows and sees, LLMs could sift through and filter vast amounts of data to spot potential threats to his power. This plus security droids is probably the wet dream of the techbros.

      It would be interesting to see how people adapt to the hallucinations of such a system. There is a certain inherent chaos involved in any dictatorship, due to its insistence on the whims of one person being above all other considerations. An LLM would involve different kinds of chaos.

        Artificial paranoia lol. “False positives” and overreactions might be possible, but probably less so than now. Today a dictator might get suspicious and think “I’ll have to watch that guy… but to be save, I better kill him now”. But an AI could watch them and everybody else 24/7, every word someone says or what he does. Then he has the “luxury” to trust in the total surveillance and not have to overreact and create chaos.

        I believe that hallucinations are less of a problem when you tell an AI to sift through and summarize and analyze existing data, compared to generating new text.

        Anyway, I believe it’s a real world application that could dramatically change the “Rules for Rulers”.
