I've "unchained" my LLM on a lot of problems that I probably could solve, but that would take me time I don't have, and that it has solved in many case faster than I could. It may not be good enough to solve problems that are beyond us for most of us, but it certainly can solve a lot of problems for a lot of us that have gone unsolved for lack of resources.
- hansmayer 1y agoUnless you can show us concrete metrics and problems solved, I am inclined not to believe your statement (source: own intensive experience with the LLMs).
- cryptonym 1y agoCan solve problems you already know how to solve, if you micro-manage it and it'll BS a lot on the way. If this is the maximum AGI-PhD-LRM can do, that'll be disappointing compared to investments. Curious to see what all this will become in few years.
- vidarh 1y agoI'm not usually micro-managing it, that's the point. I sometimes do on problems where I have particular insight, but I mostly find it is far more effective to give it test cases and give it instructions on how to approach a task, and then let it iterate with little to no oversight. I'm letting Claude Code run for longer and longer with --dangerously-skip-permissions, to the point I'm pondering rigging up something to just keep feeding it "continue" and run it in parallel on multiple problems. Because at least when you have a good way of measuring success, it works.
- hansmayer 1y agoExactly my experience too. Whoever says they're able to solve "very complex" problems with LLMs, is clearly not working on objectively complex problems.
