I still can't decide if these people are delusional or I am.
Every single time I use an LLM it fucking "lies" to me or otherwise completely fails at the task. The people talking like this seem to me like they've never actually used it, or haven't actually vetted the accuracy (like most AI users).
Maybe I'm just not using the "good stuff". Or I'm not imaginative enough to foresee a near future where these problems are actually corrected and it becomes trustworthy.
I've never been so torn by a technological prediction.
Your experience is pretty unique then.
Yes, LLMs make mistakes, but even small, self-hosted ones are pretty efficient today if you prompt them well. They're not mind reading software so you need to be able to describe the task and HOW you want it done, not just barf in some basic instructions like "write me a copy of Facebook but better".
I think most people are so disorganized in their thinking, they can't "prompt" well. There's a lot of unclarified assumptions and leaps in how many people communicate
And funnily enough, AI is great at helping streamline that process too. People just need to ASK for help (even if they're asking the AI model) instead of being set in one way of thinking and expecting miracles.
