I stopped at the daft-to-me premise:
> As large language models (LLMs) are adopted into frameworks that grant them the capacity to make real decisions, it is increasingly important to ensure that they are unbiased
It's daft to me that anyone would do it. But I strongly suspect that someone will, and more than one someone.
I think the paper is about bias formation, not reflecting existing bias.
If the formed bias was against HN usernames that started with “r,” would it still seem daft?
