I’m not sure if you meant to reply to my comment or someone else’s?

Why would I have FOMO? I am literally not missing out.

> All you are doing is learning to deal with the very flaws that have to be fixed for it to be worth anything.

No it is already worth something.

> Embrace that you aren't learning anything useful

No, I am learning useful things.

> There's a point when you need to realize it's not good enough yet

No, it’s good enough already.

Interesting perspective I guess.

If it takes you hours to figure out what's working and what's not, then it isn't good enough. It should just work or it should be obvious when it won't work.

I mean that’s like saying doing normal coding or working on any project yourself isn’t good enough because you put in hours to figure out what works and doesn’t.

It’s just that you don’t like AI lol.

That analogy is off, because LLMs aren't a project I'm working on. They are a tool I can use to do that. And my expectation on tools is that they help me and not make things more complicated than they already are.

When LLMs ever reach that point I'll certainly hear about it and gladly use them. In the meantime I let the enthusiasts sort out the problems and glitches first.

No, the analogy is good. I’m not just opening up ChatGPT and slapping at the keyboard, there are projects I’m working on.

> And my expectation on tools is that they help me

LLMs do this for me. You just don’t seem to get the same benefit that I do.

> and not make things more complicated than they already are.

LLMs do not do this for me. Things are already complicated. Just because they’re still complicated with LLMs does not mean LLMs are bad.

> When LLMs ever reach that point I'll certainly hear about it and gladly use them

You are hearing about it now. You’re just not listening because you don’t like LLMs.
