My question was very simple. Suitable for a simpler model. I can come up with prompts that make better models hallucinate (see post below). I don't understand your objection. This is a known fact, LLMs hallucinate shit regardless of th

The point is that I can make them hallucinate quite easily. And they don't demonstrate knowing their own limitations. For example, 2.5 Flash fails to explain the difference between the short ternary operator (null coalescing) and the E

That's why you can't rely on it. If things go bad, you need to own the tech completely. Be able to setup a wifi hotspot with services that can help your community (wikipedia, openstreetmaps, low-res movies), or have pendrives with

"Easy to work with" is a wide requirement. It's harder to find. But we can compare how far "easy to work with" goes in a more balanced scenario: You're hiring for a critical rare skill. _Only two_ candidates we

Valued = useful + hard to find. The more rare you are, the more you are valued. You still have to be useful to be valuable though. In order to acquire those rare skills, an ungodly amount of work is often required. It is also a huge variabl
