If I needed to know something and asked a person about it, I would be super angry if he didn’t know a correct answer but just made up something that sounded like an answer. But that’s what AI is when the answer isn’t available to it from a real source – why would anyone in his right mind need that?
I can see it being useful for AI to give me links or references to actual human created sources (humans can have credibility that can be evaluated, but for large language models that wouldn’t mean anything). But finding links is what search engines had already been doing since the days of AltaVista.
No you don’t get it, it have so much good uses if used correctly!
There are use cases for AI, but the people that can use it are already doing so. No one else is signing on and they can’t force it. End.
The more I try, the more I struggle to find any usage for LLM, like, at all. It works significantly worse than other mechanisms that it replaced, and one thing that is unique to it, generating a bunch of gramatically correct sequences of words, it does so terribly that it’s better when it doesn’t do that
They shoved one into the bunnings aop. The app people primarily use to find if shit is in stock at a particular store and where it’s located. What the ever loving fuck…
“Ask bunnings AI!” They don’t even say what it can do. It just fucking sits there. I’ve asked it to fuck off but it can’t even do that.
It’s useful in situations where there are no wrong answers, like brainstorming, but that’s about it.
Maybe a trillion dollar money laundering scheme wasnt the most viable long-term option
Omg make copilot go away!!! I do not need AI help in every cell of an Excel sheet ffs!!
It doesn’t even help. Copilot in excel is awfully incompetent.
Copilot in excel is awfully incompetent
Where is it competent at all?
I disabled that shit and removed the stupid icon as soon as they let me.
Are we there yet? Is the bubble popping? Do we need the Ron Paul gif (or am I showing my age)?
The market can stay irrational for far longer than you’d think.
This bubble is not going to pop, it will go flblfbllbflb
It has been going up recently, so I would not hold my breath.
No no that’s the way to guarantee something doesn’t happen
deserved
MS chat bots are practically in every desktop out there. What growth were they expecting?
- Provide free chat bots to everybody, regardless of if they want to or not.
- ???
- Profit.
I mean… The one thing they can’t expect on step 3 is growth.
Profit is at least theoretically possible.
By the way, I’d say step 2.a. is “make its usage mandatory for the system to work”, and 2.b. is “bill for usage”…
With the insane costs for training and inference, those subscriptions would have to be veeeery very very expensive. One of the more interesting cases was the dev who burned like 15k on a sub of 200? iirc, anthropic claude. And he or she is probably not the only one.
