"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I did it so you don't have to
By the way, it took 5 tries because in 3 of them it made up a story about a different journalist, and in one of them it listed who it thinks would eat the most hotdogs.
Why is the entire economy riding on this thing?
Is it my imagination or are LLMs actually getting less reliable as time goes on? I mean, they were never super reliable but it seems to me like the % of garbage is on the increase. I guess that's a combination of people figuring out how to game/troll the system, and AI producers trying to monetize their output. A perfect storm of shit.
garbage in ( text generated by other ai) garbage out ( less realiable text to train on)
LLM are not smart they have no brain it is a prediction engine: I could see a LLM being used in a real AI to form sentences or something but I'm sure there are better ways to do it, I mean a human brain does not hold all the knowledge of humanity to be able to process thoughts and ideas... it's a little overkill...
