I happened to be at an investor-startup conference yesterday that had a few different companies trying to do this. It's actually not a bad idea. There were some claims made about specific companies that I couldn't verify, but interesting none the less * Examples of specific company employees extracting information they had no access to in the regular JIRA/Confluence world, but were able to extract it via an LLM trained on company data. There are a bunch of "train LLM on the companies entire knowledgebase" startups right now. Without control on who is querying about which project. Employees can query about the RIF that is happening next month, and maybe theyll get a truthful response * Hiding information that needs to be legally, or morally anonymized * Anonymizing business logic and code If it works well, itll allow companies to really throw in everything they have into LLM training, without worrying of what goes in. Plenty of companies (including my employer) still block the chatgpt URL accross all computers The only problem I see with these shovel sellers, is that any corporation can build this in a couple of weeks tops to help sell enterprise licenses, they don't really have an edge
