It's common practice to have the LLM spit out the meta data as well, e.g. a source link. We do that for almost all of our usecases, it's the best way to increase trust in the response.
The LLM step does provide a benefit, as it can synthesize a tight and concise answer to the user's question, instead of returning a list of source documents to sift through manually.
- wumbo 2y agoThe real beauty is not visiting people’s horrible web pages. Oh how I want information. Oh how I don’t want your newlsetter modal to obscure that information.
- PaulHoule 2y agoUpnext spent about two years developing a "reader" that could deenshittify most pages in the context of a "read-it-later" application. They pivoted to start Brief which does AI recommendation and summarization and shut down Upnext. I think they are still using the back end of the reader to get a clean extract of text to feed into the AI. But it's very telling that users are supportive of Google's agenda of not sending you to people's actual web sites because web sites have gotten so bad. Europeans will deny it but I think those cookie banners broke the dam so that now it is normalized that you can pop up four different modals asking for an email address.
- wumbo 2y agoNot Europe’s fault there, just determined adversarial web design.
- jmount 2y agoI forgot this point, but you are right. I use ChatGPT for all programming queries- as I don't want Google routing me to pop-up infested splogs.
