You can't depend on it at all. I mean, you can use it for a tremendous amount of work, but until there is a way to constrain the bullshit LLM's can't be used for anything that requires a correct answer.
The terms "depend" and "require" there are the hard versions. You can't send people to the moon on the outputs of LLM's.
I think we'll solve that problem for LLMs before we solve it for humans. Data analysts produce a lot of garbage; data work is really hard. In fact, it isn't uncommon in my experience for the data analyst to be the only person saying "hang on, the quality of this reporting isn't good enough for the decisions you're making from it!" - because they understand what useful information looks like and the company doesn't have much of it.
These tools are great at generating text responses, some of which are usable, but not analysis. We're actually far from that. I'm not sure why some people are out here pretending this is not the case.
You haven't the vaguest fucking idea what I'm doing with the tools so put up a logical argument on the facts instead of just generating tokens in some way that attempts to play the person and not the ball.
Didn’t you get the memo? If you’re holding the hammer by the head and wondering why it isn’t driving the nail in that it is clearly the fault of the manufacturer.
There’s even a handy aphorism to remind you that the user is never to blame: “You’re holding it wrong.”
Jokes aside, I wonder what the general writing abilities and communication skills are for people that cannot for the life of them get usable results from an LLM.
OpenAI should make something so that people can enter their prompt and maybe even drop in a knowledge base and then share with anyone else who wants that functionality.
