Good luck with that.

I’m tired of this uninformed take.

LLMs are not a magical box you can ask anything of and get answers. If you are lucky and blindly asking questions it can give some accurate general data, but just like how human brains work you aren’t going to be able to accurately recreate random trivia verbatim from a neural net.

What LLMs are useful for, and how they should be used, is a non-deterministic parsing context tool. When people talk about feeding it more data they think of how these things are trained. But you also need to give it grounding context outside of what the prompt is. give it a PDF manual, website link, documentation, whatever and it will use that as context for what you ask it. You can even set it to link to reference.

You still have to know enough to be able to validate the information it is giving you, but that’s the case with any tool. You need to know how to use it.

As for the spyware part, that only matters if you are using the hosted instances they provide. Even for OpenAI stuff you can run the models locally with opensource software and maintain control over all the data you feed it. As far as I have found, none of the models you run with Ollama or other local AI software have been caught pushing data to a remote server, at least using open source software.

Which is actually something Deepseek is able to do.

Even if it can still generate garbage when used incorrectly like all of them, it’s still impressive that it will tell you it doesn’t “know” something, but can try to help if you give it more context. which is how this stuff should be used anyway.

Just because people are misusing tech they know nothing about does not mean this isn’t an impressive feat.

If you know what you are doing, and enough to know when it gives you garbage, LLMs are really useful, but part of using them correctly is giving them grounding context outside of just blindly asking questions.

That, and they are just brute forcing the problem. Neural nets have been around for ever but it’s only been the last 5 or so years they could do anything. There’s been little to no real breakthrough innovation as they just keep throwing more processing power at it with more inputs, more layers, more nodes, more links, more CUDA.

And their chasing a general AI is just the short sighted nature of them wanting to replace workers with something they don’t have to pay and won’t argue about it’s rights.

I haven’t done much with UI in general, but the one time I thought of making some UI stuff in windows I gave up.

Even modifying an existing .net program someone else made for a feature I wanted was a nightmare.

Like I feel they should want right wing nuts to be mad about the game. They won’t stop talking about media that are mad about and so many conservatives will still buy the thing even just to destroy it and virtue signal to the other idiots.

The left? Some may still buy it, but most don’t talk about it at all. The idea of “go woke go broke” has always been a message of intent, not reality, at least in the modern era.

Nothing makes me want to try a game or watch a show more than legitimate, non surface level representation that incels whine about.

I guarantee he is projecting how little he works on others. Every accusation these people make is a confession.

And yes, even the “why do you have to make it your entire personality?” is projection. As much of a cult as maggots are, I think the only real difference is trump is too stupid to use the usual double speak politicians were using before and the base that always was out for blood ate it up. He also gave them phrases and symbols to plaster over all their stuff.

Yet they will claim someone having a single pride sticker on their car or flag outside their house is “shoving it in their face” while they drive down the road with a 2 or more flags I their car, along with countless number stickers, and a house covered in at least a half dozen flags and signs.

And no, I’m not exaggerating. I see these trucks (always a shitty truck) and houses regularly where I currently live, and I’m fleeing in a month as I’m queer and one of their targets.

A lot of this comes from professors wanting comments in assinments and grade on arbitrary levels of if it exists.

I had one class where the instructor would give a vuage “not enough comments” that I did comments like this on every fuction and loop out of spite.

As lord Gaben has said, “piracy is a service issue”

Basically. I know at least two other trans women besides myself from my graduating class.

Stereotypes, all of us 😅

The girls in the class will figure themselves out eventually

And here my barely awake trans ass was wondering why the crow was talking about estrogen 😅.

I need coffee.
