Contrary anecdata: No. I have yet to get any value out of LLMs other than crossword clue solutions and first drafts of poetry. For everything else, I find the bland mediocrity of LLM text as bad as the hallucinations, and the combination of those intolerable. My more typical friends and coworkers are much more forgiving of these flaws in LLMs.
- mewpmewp2 2y agoDo you do anything coding related?
- lavelganzu 2y agoI'm a software developer by trade. LLM-based coding buddies (at least as of July 2024) are better than copy-paste for boilerplate, but I've never yet gotten one to complete a novel class method in a way that saved time. And asking questions about Java or JavaScript? 100% wrong answers on the kinds of questions I ask it in practice; it always "rounds off" to the answer to a more common question.
