Unpopular opinion: you only hate chat gpt because it makes it harder to stack rank and discriminate against people.
So what everyone can write well now? great it’s a tool! Just like moving faster because you drive a car.
The good news is you’ll be easily able to hire for that writing job you need. The bad news is you won’t be able to discriminate against candidates who are not as good with the written word.
Also, an obsession with the written word is a tenant of white supremacy [salute emoji]

Man, this probably hits really hard if you’re fuckin stupid.
LLMs are distinctly different from expert systems.
Expert systems are designed to be perfectly correct in specific domains, but not to communicate.
LLMs are designed to generate confident statements with no regard for correctness.
Don’t make me tap the sign
We don’t correct people when they are wrong. We do other things.
Yeah. I should have said “illusions of” an expert system or something similar. An LLM can for example produce decent working code to meet a given request, but it can also spit out garbage that doesn’t work or has major vulnerabilities. It’s a crap shoot
alert alert we’ve got of one of them on the doorstep
I don’t understand what part of their statement you read as pro-LLM
arguing-from-existence of expert systems (which were the fantasy in the previous wave)
Expert systems actually worked.
