I think what made the LLMs so popular in the mainstream was anyone could go experience it themselves in a familiar, low barrier to entry way with a simple chat prompt.
- worrycue 3y agoIMHO LLMs are so popular because they sound very confident. That’s great marketing in itself. Unfortunately it’s only marketing.
- smcl 3y agoYeah you're right - I think "AI" as a concept for your average person was quite abstract and hard to wrap their head around, to get some kind of idea of the kind of things it can or cannot do. So having something tangible they can be a bit more hands-on with gives them a better idea of what it does.
