@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io its because the majority of LLM advocates were poor programmers in the first place

@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io like, fundamentally it has no concept of truth so it cannot evaluate the truthiness of any statement

@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io I don't partake on the LLM stuff but they've already proved some degree of usefulness. I don't think people in general would trust them with sensitive (health, well being) stuff but from what I hear, some people are very good at wielding it as a tool. I don't know how my car works, I'd be a terrible mechanic and racer. Still, it's very handy tool for me to move around.

@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io That's funny when you explain to people how it really works, if they are not LLM advocates, they see exactly why it can't work. It's literally created with to make stuff up.

@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io It's all halucinations, there's just a magical line where we don't mind the output on the one side and we do on the other. There is literally no distinction between the two

@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io Any LLM output that takes more than a few seconds of low mental effort to check (so anything more than a line or two of tab complete in a strongly typed coding language in an IDE with built in error underlining) makes me want to throw my computer out of the window. I don't know how some people use it to generate a whole paragraph let alone multiple.

@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io perhaps renaming them little lying malware might help ...

@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io It never stopped being this, just a version of this that has reduced errors. It's a corrective algorithm being fed noise and direction to correct towards. It has no sense of self, reality, or anything like that. Just an overgrown version of your noise canceling headphones algorithm, where the outside noise is it's starting point and your music is the prompt it tried to acheve.
