Lets not pretend this is the same skill set.
Prompting is yet another layer of abstraction. Untrained teenagers obsessed with chatGPT likely rival OP in prompting.
OP can likely write some random forest algorithm, its just not needed anymore.
I'm not an AI person, just a programmer, and I've found my time has gone into learning parameters to fine-tune + learning prompting. Maybe the parameters would have helped if I knew AI, but these are all layers that need to be learned.
- beeeeerp 3y agoI recently saw an article arguing that waiting for overall LLM improvements actually beats fine-tuning in most cases as well. What are your feeling on this? (apologies that I can’t remember the source)
- resource_waste 3y ago>waiting for overall LLM improvements actually beats fine-tuning in most cases My real world case is basically this. I couldn't fine tune(I think my problem was too hard, or Mistral sucks, or I suck). ChatGPT4 could do the job with me speaking gibberish and a single shot example, couldn't use mistral + 10k examples for the life of me. My project comes due at the end of April and I've been waiting since February...
- iknownthing 3y ago> OP can likely write some random forest algorithm, its just not needed anymore. Not sure if that's completely true. What if the prediction problem is based on company data e.g. predicting probability of click? Not sure how you could use ChatGPT for that. Also no one actually writes a random forest algorithm, you just import it from a library.
