Goal to adopt LLMs and related tech seems driven almost solely by FOMO. Government, more than any other organization, should be applying healthy skepticism to claims of self-serving tech companies, most of whom have not even proven their tech’s worth, in the marketplace or anywhere else. Except maybe as a means of confounding the gullible and amusing the masses.
Every tool must prove it’s real worth helping people achieve a real and meaningful goal. Meanwhile, fanbois prove only that LLMs are good at cloning pre-existing products, at best remixing them, and introducing countless security vulnerabilities, all while losing any understanding of how any of it works, all in the interests of “moving faster”. But faster in which direction, nobody seems to know or care.
