"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.

No, even in the absolute best case scenario, the LLM analysis is a trailing indicator. There's no way that it indicates current views, just possibly an indication of past views.
Personally I think this entire line of thinking ("silicon sampling") is dangerous af.
That's a good point, although I imagine a dedicated company could refine a model using more recently sampled general data to improve the recency.
