"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 find the LLMs are only good at the easy stuff anyway.
You would be correct. They hallucinate anywhere from 5-50%+ of the time depending on task complexity and there's literally no way to make them stop. Relying on them for information is genuinely akin to asking a paranoid schizophrenic living in your pocket what they think you should do.
For me the sweet spot is decisions that are trivial once you have the information at hand, but collecting the information is painful. Anything that requires strategic thinking I'll do myself because what is your edge if you only take average strategic decisions?
