I think the point that is missed is all of these solved real problems that needed solving. I feel over the last decade we have exhausted the obvious benefits of the Internet revolution and more often than not we were seeing clever technology being developed, that wouldn't solve any problems. Then long and painful search for applications of that technology would ensue. Cases in point: crypto, llms.
- api 4mo agoYou’re comparing crypto and LLMs?
- neonstatic 4mo agoYes. In fact, crypto is ahead, because it does have a legitimate use case. Two, actually - money laundering and sanctions evasion.
- dghlsakjg 4mo agoI'm not sure I agree on your definition of legitimate... If we want to say that any value generating - including crime - is inbounds, then LLMs are FANTASTIC scam machines. There are incredible uses for LLMs in a lot of stealing money spaces.
- neonstatic 4mo agoI'll admit I was being a bit provocative with wording there ;)
- api 4mo agoI just had an LLM synthesize a complete app UI from spec. It did a decent job.
