You need to learn to use the tool better, clearly, if you have such an unhinged take as this.

- razorbeamz 7mo agoThe only people who use LLMs "as a tool" are those who are incapable of doing it without using it at all.
- retsibsi 7mo ago> The only people who use LLMs "as a tool" are those who are incapable of doing it without using it at all. Do you mean that? It's clearly false, but I don't want to waste time gathering famous-person counterexamples if you already know it's a huge exaggeration at best.
- cbg0 7mo agoNo true scotsman, right?
- Sirental 7mo agoNo to be fair I do see what he's saying. I see a major difference between the more expensive models and the cheaper ones. The cheaper (usually default) ones make mistakes all the damn time. You can be as clear as day with them and they simply don't have the context window or specs to make accurate, well reasoned desicions and it is a bit like having a terrible junior work alongside you, fresh out of university.
- ThunderSizzle 7mo agoEmphasis on the "terrible" part of the junior. The cheaper models can't be taught or improved due to their inherit limitations, which makes it a huge pain to even try with even the simplest of tasks. Perpetually, no matter your instruction file(s).
- Sirental 7mo agoI agree. The more expensive models I must admit have impressed me, but sometimes they take so long and are so expensive you might as well do it yourself. That being said if you're feeling particularly lazy there is now a "do it for me" button built into code editors, but until perhaps 2035 this technology is still somewhat pedestrian compared to what it could be in the future.
- voxl 7mo agoIt's not unhinged at all, it's a lack of imagination on both of your parts.
