Can someone espouse some positive LLM use? Correlating data seems useful, but...
...I've been negative on LLM use recently. I've somewhat mentally decided an LLM is a google search which tries to make you feel good (like you're collaborating with other people), and if you strip that away, you get essentially a (admittedly decent) wikipedia search on a topic. The data correlation can give new insights, but I'm struggling to see how an LLM is creating anything _new_. If the LLM is fed it's own correlated data, it gets confused after a while (e.g. context poisoning or whatever).
So if I strip away the platitudes, isn't an LLM just a wikipedia search which gets confused after a time to most people, and a research assistant which might lie to you (by also having the context get confused) after a time to researchers?
