>>4303578>>4303611This is the truth. LLM's are a huge leap from an academic standpoint, and the fact they were conversational and effective unlike prior attempts such as Siri, Cortana, etc was stunning.
However, we're now in the deflation part of the hype cycle, and what we're seeing is the model of AI that more sober minded folks were talking about when LLM's debuted:
- A more effective version of existing 'intelligent assistants' like Siri
- Potential automation of bio robot jobs (think Indian Call Centers, etc)
- A useful tool for fuzzy matching, deployment of non-customized ML analytics, etc (think basic sentiment analysis, classifiers, etc)
- A useful search/exploratory mechanism for complex technical documentation (LLM's are really good at generating SQL and other scripting type languages)
They're big deal, but not in the way the average plebiscite thinks they are.
