What’s the difference between what you describe and what’s needed for a fresh hire off the street, especially one just starting their career?
- kunai 2y agoThe bell curve is much wider for humans than LLMs, I don't think this needs to be said.

- jsjohnst 2y ago> has the potential Good choice of wording! Definitely not a given though.
- fzeroracer 2y agoThe difference is that a LLM is like hiring a worst-case scenario fresh hire that lied to you during the interview process, has a fake resume and isn't actually named John Programmer.
- jsjohnst 2y agoEntirely disagree.
- intended 2y agoReal talk? The human can be made to suffer consequences. We don't mention this in techie circles, probably because it is gauche. However you can hold a person responsible, and there is a chance you can figure out what they got wrong and ensure they are trained. I can’t do squat to OpenAI if a bot gets something wrong, nor could I figure out why it got it wrong in the first place.
