> XB, or eXtreme Bullshitting: a less misleading name for LLMs
The author suggests that the term "LLM" (Last Minute Meeting) is misleading and proposes a new term, "XB" (eXtreme Bullshitting), to more accurately describe the pointless and time-wasting nature of these meetings. The tweet has sparked some controversy, with some arguing that not all LLMs are useless and that the new term is disrespectful to colleagues and the meeting process. However, others have praised the author for bringing attention to a common workplace issue.
Kind of ironic that this is the ChatGPT summary of this post (I'm following a HN Telegram summary bot) and it hallucinated the meaning of LLM and thereby completely ruined the point the author was trying to make.
- fastball 3y agoSounds like a poorly made bot. I just fed the tweet to ChatGPT and it understood the meaning of "LLM" and responded to the meat of the post.

- nuancebydefault 3y agoI think this proves that LLMs should not be labeled XB
