I'm tired of people bashing LLMs. AI is so useful in my daily work that I can't understand where these people are coming from. Well, whatever...
As you said, examples where I wouldn't expect LLMs to be good at from people who dismiss the scenarios where LLMs are great at. I don't want to convince anyone, to be honest - I just want to say they are incredibly useful for me and a huge time saver. If people don't want to use LLMs, it's fine for me as I'll have an edge over them in the market. Thanks for the cash, I guess.
- joquarky 2y agoI'm starting to resign myself to just enjoying the benefits and let those who can't evolve fall behind. I'm growing weary of trying to help people use these tools properly.

- glimshe 2y agoI'll give you a simple and silly example which could give you additional ideas. LLMs can be great for checking whether people can understand something. One day I came up with a joke and wondered whether people would "get it". I told the joke to ChatGPT and asked it to explain it back to me. ChatGPT did a great job and nailed what's supposedly funny about the joke. I used it in an email so I have no idea whether anyone found it funny, but at least I know it wasn't too obscure. If an AI can understand a joke, there's a good chance people will understand it too. This might not be super useful but demonstrates that LLMs aren't only about generating text for copy-and-paste or retrieving information. It's "someone" you can bounce ideas with, ask opinions and that's how I use it most frequently.
