I doubt anyone can actually calculate a line of best using ordinary least square linear regression by hand with no mistakes but no one's crying about that. LLMs are just the next generation of calculators and programs.

For the first sentence: Yes, that's why computers are popular. For the second sentence: They're more like the next generation of algorithms, not whole calculators.

I'll proceed to eat your feesh now.

That second point is just a distinction without a difference. Being pedantic doesn’t add anything to the conversation.

Just admit you're wrong at this point man

[–] IEatDaFeesh@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'm not though, you were being pedantic and glossing over the whole point.

[–] ameen272@thelemmy.club 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Why am I even talking to a person with negative score anyway, you're up to no good.
