See, that's your problem. You're arguing, with me, about something that was said to you by someone else. Do you realize why I'm questioning your argumentative skills?

Here's a source to a study about AI's accuracy as a search engine. The main use case proposed for LLMs as a tool is indexing a bunch of text, then summarizing and answering questions about it in natural language.

AI Search Has A Citation Problem

Another use is creating or modifying text based on an input or prompt, however, LLMs are prone to hallucinations. Here's a deep dive into what they are, why they occur and the challenges of dealing with them.

I don't know why do I even bother. You are just going to ignore the sources and dismiss them as well.

I'm sorry? You came to me.

Here is how I see it:

  1. Someone compared AI to calculator/calendar
  2. I said you cannot compare that
  3. You asked why I even argue with the first person
  4. I said that I want a better discussion
  5. You said that I should stop dimissing other people's arguments
  6. I tried to explain why I don't think it is a valid argument to compare LLM to "calculator can do reliably. or a timer. or a calendar."
  7. You did not seem to agree with me on that from what I understand.
  8. And now we are here.

I don't have the time to read the articles now so I will have to do it later, but hallucinations can definitively be a problem. Asking for code is one such situation where an LLM can just make up functions that does not exist.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
