Large organizations expect to cause some harm as a "tax" built into the system; they are not very harm avoidant, they are more psychopathic (and often led by psychopaths). So new tech is used without much concern about creating harms.

Sure, LLMs do amazing things, but so did all the previous once-disruptive technologies later widely adopted. Electricity, flight, nuclear energy, transistors and integrated circuits, the internet; AI is joining a very competitive list.

We've just never seen a disruptive technology with this much media buzz behind it so quickly, and such rapid technological advances. Disruptive technologies are never "ready for prime time" ... until they are.
