You could sell the cure for a fortune. Imagine something that can reliably cure late stage cancers. You could charge a million for the treatment, easily.
Yes, selling the actual cure would be profitable…but an LLM would only ever provide the text for synthesizing it but none of the extensive testing, licensing, or manufacturing, etc… An existing pharmaceutical company would have to believe the LLM and then front the costs for the development, testing, and manufacture…which constitutes a large proportion of the costs of bringing a treatment to market. Burning compute time on that is a waste of resources, especially when fleecing horny losers is available right now. It is just business.
and LLMs hallucinate a lot of shit they “know” nothing about. a big pharma company spending millions of dollars on an LLM hallucination would crack me the fuck up were it not such a serious disease.
No money in curing cancer with an LLM. Heaps of money taking advantage if increasingly alienated and repressed people.

Right, that is why I originally said there is no money in a cancer cure invented by LLM. It’s just not a serious possibility.
