“Let’s set that aside for a moment” whenever discussing failings, impacts, and costs of LLMs is such an offensive dismissal of human harms that I am surprised to hear it from an accessibility-focused session chair at TPAC (not today; time-delayed to obfuscate person / session).

@yatil I recognize W3C is a member-driven org, hence my also lack of surprise even if I expect more of the humans who participate.
@aardrian I’m not surprised. W3C Members are LLM peddlers, and so there is appeasement, because sticking to their guns would mean less funding for W3C. As someone who seen how the sausage is made, a lot of W3C policy is driven by the fear to lose members.
