    MS chat bots are practically in every desktop out there. What growth were they expecting?

        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”…

    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.

    Are we there yet? Is the bubble popping? Do we need the Ron Paul gif (or am I showing my age)?

    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.
