A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

LLMs are good for searching in technical documentation. And that's it. They are barely usable outside this niche.

Stop using it for "humanitarian" purposes. It can't be a psychologist, lawyer or anything else similar.

They're good for pattern matching on smear tests, etc and have a detection rate much better than humans (+90% to~75%)
