LLMs no good for you?
1 comments

Not OP, but what game changing uses are you finding for LLMs? I mostly find they're good for brainstorming ideas of activities to do, asking "is there a thing like this and what is it called", and writing trite correspondence to acquaintances. It's useful for me but hardly life changing.
Putting it like that, and I like putting it like that, sounds like LLMs are to Wikipedia what shoes are to people who want to go from A to B.
That computers can reasonably handle natural language instructions is pretty amazing.
