    These views on LLMs are simplistic. As a wise man once said, “check yoself befo yo wreck yoself”, I recommend more education thus

    LLM structures arw over hyped, but they’re also not that simple

      From what i know from recent articles about retracing LLM indepth, they are indeed best suited for language translation and perfectly explain the halucinations. And i think i’ve read somewhere that this was the originally intended purpose of the tech?

        many of the proponents of things in this field will propose/argue $x thing to be massively valuable for $x

        thing is, that doesn’t often work out

        yes, there’s some value in the tech for translation outcomes. to anyone even mildly online, “so are language teaching apps/sites using this?” is probably a very nearby question. and rightly so!

        and then when you go digging into how that’s going in practice, wow fuck damn doesn’t that Glorious AI Future sheen just fall right off…
