The article seemed a little fluffy, and I wondered if at least part of it was LLM generated. However I do agree with the general sentiment. I find the current hype cycle of LLMs to be similar to the petro industry: there are many useful applications of petroleum, without having to set it on fire. And yet the industry is loath to give up on a use that consumes copious quantities of it's product. LLMs have many beneficial applications, in deep data analysis and pattern matching. Yet industry is intent on applying the tech to problems where its results are dubious, because of the mass market of those applications. So much for the magical black box of the market 8-/ As in every documented case ever: product vendors will take every dollar possible, to hell with consequences. Think of the radioactive skin cream of the '50s 8-/ Sure, it's "good" for you, and "more doctors choose camel"... And never mind that whole libtard fake-news that the planet's ecosystem is going to shit... Every patriot knows the little bebe jesus put it all here for us to trash, obviously... It's in this context that LLMs are definitely the best way to decide whether or not your insurance company pays for you to get a kidney transplant 8-/ As long as I'm on a roll, and related to my first sentence, I _really_ dislike the em dashes 8-/ and their use has really spread with the prevalence of LLM generated text. Not just in the LLM text, but in the text of humans that are influenced by the LLM text. If people would just use them "incorrectly", that is with spaces around them, then they would follow the general rule of english writing, to delimit words and phrases with a space.
